PLEASE TAKE NOTE
This day 18th of May has now changed. We will be hosting our BMPRS race on this date.
Our regatta is now combined with Fairlands valley park open day on the 2nd Aug.
ALL Clubs are welcome to come along and join us on Saturday 2nd Aug. We hope to get the children that come along to build some bottle boats, the bigger Children that want to have ago at driving a IC powered boat will be able to under control of several experts we have at SMBC.


Watch this space because I'm hopping to arrange a LAZY SUNDAY which will be scale sail slower boats that take care of themselves almost.

What a lovely day.
The sun came out which always help when you want model boaters to come along and play for the day.
We had visitors from Luton MBC and others which had driven miles to find us. Thanks.


The IC boys ran there boats till 11am then the scale took over with a short IC demo run just after midday. We now have a buddy box system so you can drive a real IC boat at the club so if you want to try our boat pop down on Sundays. Some members of the public gave it ago as well as some scale boaters. Most came away with a big smile on there face.


We at SMBC set Luton MBC a challenge to make a bottle boat or two and then give us a race. Well give 20 model boaters some old pop bottles and it kept amused.  I said it was going to be fun.  Chuck out your rc  money pits and try a bottle boat.
The day came to a close at 4pm with a few sunburnt body parts we made our way home happy.
A very big THANK YOU to all who made the effort to turn out.
BILL WARDER Chairman SMBC.
