First time i've attended a model boat show, very impressed some lovely models on show and in the water. The huge RNLI lifeboat that was at least 4ft long was very impressive, a lovely model.
Thank you to all involved and the excellent trade stalls that allowed me to see items i just cant see in my local shop. A good day out.

I attended the Ellesmere Port Model Boat show this weekend and was very impressed indeed with the models on display. I collected a kit of the Boston Typhoon that I had ordered from Mountfleet Models. Quite a struggle to get such a large box back to the car and it only just fits into the back. I am looking forward to starting work on this superb model. Thank you Adam from Mountfleet Models.

As one of the organisers I would like to thank all those guys who attended, all the traders who attended, the Museum staff who helped and our own club members who pulled out all the stops to make the show so successful, OK so there were minor blips, but they were all sorted, plus the help we got from other clubs, especially Runcorn Model Boat Club. I am glad everyone seemed to enjoy it and we look forward to the first weekend in March 2015.  Well done everyone.

Unfortunately Adrian of Adrian's Marine Figures had to cancel at the last minute (two days before the show) due to his wifes ill health problem.  Hopefully she is on the mend and I wish her a speedy recovery.
