Yet another fine Sunday morning at Setley pond so a few more photos.

Just a normal Sunday dont you know.

Oh yes and the wee Welsh fella with the Mayhem cap who has his hand infront of his face so you wont recognise him, is our mate Tug Kenny seeing how the other half live. Oh yes, a thoroughly nice man.

Pacific Buccaneer owned by Ray Hellicar; dont know if he wants to sell it.

Not sure on the scale, about the same as the aziz I would think.

Not keeping to bad Jay, nothing happening on Kens build this week as he's having a week off.

Another fine day, and another great set of photos.

What a week off I had. Weather was outstanding

I called in on the Setley meeting and here a few shots of Dicky D and his boats. What a superb lake. Very calm and flat, with easy launching at the water's edge.

The Solent Model Boat Club club gave me a lovely welcome and I enjoyed my visit tremendously. Dicky even let me drive his boat. No --- I didn't sink it.

Here's the man himself with his fleet being prepared for the water.

Oh yes .... the weather

A trip afterwards to the RNLI at Lymington. They had just returned from a mission and were washing down the RIB.

I bought a few things from their shop and had a chat with them. Great bunch of guys.

Glad you enjoyed your week down here Ken. It was great to meet you face to face.

The boat that wouldn't go I put on the bench, connected the battery and xstals switched on, yes it ran fine.

Tug-Kenny RIP · « **Reply #38 on:** October 04, 2009, 01:51:26 pm »

Perhaps the hot weather got to it.

Wiring glich maybe.

Thanks for the welcome. I had a lovely time. Now you know where we went afterwards.

I've bought the toy Severn and the original 'Severn' drawings from the RNLI ( £18) and not forgetting some little lifeboat men. My next project eh !! can't wait.

Yet again another beautiful Sunday morning. A lot of the photos did not come out to well because of the glare of the sun off the water.

We could also do with a lot of rain as the pond level is very low at the moment.

Motley crew

Excellent Dicky and I reckon the sunshine has actually helped some of those photos..

Lovely photos, Richard,

that sunshine looks very Australian

Peter.

A few photos from Setley Pond this morning. There aren't to many as the sun was reflecting off the water.

Thanks, you two.

You will of course have noticed the two new boats on their maiden voyage Ken.

Also a bit more water since you were there Ken, it's now both sides of the car park.

Tug-Kenny RIP · « **Reply #46 on:** March 14, 2010, 09:17:31 pm »

Yes, it's a great place for sailing. I'll try and come down again this summer.

You're more than welcome Ken, I'll give you a better boat next time.

Peter Fitness · « **Reply #48 on:** March 14, 2010, 09:45:52 pm »

Great shots, Richard, the sun glinting off the water gives a good effect

The new boats look great too

Peter.
