Title: Stavros gets his trolleys wet in daring rescue!!!
Post by: Robert Davies on August 12, 2007, 09:26:42 pm

Photographs of a daring rescue attempt by our very own Stavros have come into my possession from an unnamed source....

Stavros Huntsman became snagged on an underwater obstruction in the lake at Llanberis....

Prompting the appearance of SuperStav!.....

Trolleys still dry.....

and now somewhat wetter ;)

Not pictured, assorted members of Gwynedd Model Boat Group ready to rescue Stavros, assuming they can stop laughing long enough! :D

Well you see it went a bit like this,Robert and another of our members decided they would go for a walk to the river which is approx a mile away but the lake had overflowed slightly into the fields,unperturbed by this our intrepid duo set out and so the story goes Robert lost a propeller on his Model Slipway's Sentinel,captain error,he says that th river had washed down a load of gravel that was not there last week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and he consequently lost one.well personally I tink he was too close to shore but who am I to comment!!.Now as Robert was one propless so to speak he had to go in to rescue his stricken craft luckily for him there was no one there with a camera so Robert had to go all the way home in wet pants he he .

I could deny it all...

but that's pretty much what happened....

Bloomin' good fun up till that point shooting and surfing the breakers with the Slipway Sentinel - don't let ANYONE tell you it's a light winds calm water boat! It was frequently out of sight in the troughs between the waves, a la 'The Perfect Storm' :)

A now somewhat drier and warmer,

-Rob :D :P

im not entirely sure that llanberis is ideal for my neppie or sydney star, however southampton may get a visit there along with maybe my najade.  mainly because the najade is BIG and the lil southampton is watertight and will survive a roll over (it has already proved that), just how big were those waves anyway?
