Post by: Dueller on February 07, 2010, 10:59:47 pm
Hi all,

Is there a section on the forum for finding model boat "water".

My nearest one is broomfield park in Palmers Green , London (10 mins ). Does anyone else use it and on which days.

Try

Not comprehensive, as it relies on club secretaries and the like telling about their water, and not all of them are on tinternet.
