:) Don't think I'd be able to control any of your boats! except maybe that rtr tug! lol

I'm holding out hope of having the duck fixed in time, but my Flower Class has a burned out motor (6v monoperm), so I'll have to order a new motor and mount. Will still be there, just maybe not with any of my own boats!

Derrick you are more than welcome to pop over and collect a motor, I've quite a few hiding in my workshop, probably will never use them again, pm me if you want one,

what's wrong with the Duck ?

Richtea · « **Reply #429 on:** May 30, 2012, 12:59:38 pm »

Booked camping today, for Fri, Sat and Sun.
Now where did I put that prayer mat to pray for the sun ?

Klunk · « **Reply #430 on:** May 30, 2012, 01:09:48 pm »

If no sun i vote Martin has to walk across the lake!

just to show that he is the messiah

Martin (Admin) · « **Reply #431 on:** May 30, 2012, 01:27:52 pm »

Messy maybe...

Richtea · « **Reply #432 on:** May 30, 2012, 01:28:28 pm »

After what he's done to get the show on this year,
walking across the pond will be a doddle

Does anyone know what the plan is for camping, is the price the same for a tent as it is for a caravan, Is there a seperate area for tents?

Thanks

Russ

Richtea · « **Reply #434 on:** May 30, 2012, 04:32:48 pm »

£20-00 pounds a night for a tent, booked myself this morning.
( I believe that the prices go up if you have a larger caravan or tent )

Richard

By the way Richtea, you are the nominated Mayhem photographer again!

Martin (Admin) · « **Reply #436 on:** May 30, 2012, 04:46:00 pm »

Another BTW:

I'm going to be experimenting with 'Mayhem video interviews' with a camcorder...

.... if I sneak up and stick a mic up your nose, just say "Hi!" and tell us a bit about yourself and / or your boat.

Youngat65 · « **Reply #437 on:** May 30, 2012, 05:26:08 pm »

Stavros, Get it shorted !!

Camping, I booked in my caravan and it was £20.00 pn. If you have got a big one its more but you still don't get lecy hook up which at that price you should

Andy that hydro is baned so don't even think about it. All the members at Stevenage mbc ran for cover the last time you put it on the water

Well I think thats all See you there about 10.00 am Friday morn. A1 /A14 permitting

Cheers I'll give you a get or email, managed to get the old motor out earlier, which was difficult trying to do through the small gap in the deck!

As for the duck... It was fine, worked brilliantly, then I tweeked it, and now no matter what I do I can't get it as it was, motor is now over heating. Might have it done for the weekend but not looking likely.

Bill

Is in charge/control of any slow IC boats running this weekend, what he says regarding these running is final. There is no 50/50, you can not ask the audience and you can not phone a friend.

Was taken with a finepix camera, and well, I thought 70+mph was fast for a model on its first run?

Oh and Bill, the less said about the courtesy of the 'running' Stevenage members the better.

No problem with that. I am More then happy to check over your boats before you go on the water and help with any IC matters.
Any slow IC boats MUST have a working failsafe, Any boats that sound to loud will be checked. 80dB at 10 meters is the limit set by BMPRS and others so that what I'm using. Any IC boats that have bad rudder linkage controls IE to much flex in the rudder will not be aloud on the water at all.
We at Mayhem have had to fight hard over to last 6 mouths to get Slow IC boats on the lake. I Thank WMBC for letting us use the lake for SLOW IC boats at Mayhem But please don't let Mayhem down by having a unavoidable accident during the weekend we will not get a second chance to run IC boats if someone screws it up.

Now lets go have some FUN FUN FUN & sunshine

Im lookin forward to that 1st beer on Friday night.

Thanks Rich

Do you have to pay per day to gain access to the park or is it free if you are paying to camp?

Cheers

No! If you have paid for your camping and display your ticket they don't normaly bother you. If you want to go on the rides you have to pay for tickets or a band thingy but im sure your going there for thr rides
