having just returned from AT Boatyard/ Beale park event.....all i can say is BEALE IS BACK,

and its on my calendar for 2014, - if this event is anything to go on !

the sun shone, the modellers were out in force with anything from thames barges, tugs, lifeboats, fast electrics, yachts, hovercraft, the portsmouth display team put on a first class show with lots of bangs and smoke, and everyone seemed to be having a 'TOP DAY OUT'

a very very big thank you to everyone who made this event happen- you all deserve a huge pat on the back....

good luck to all those doing the big thames cruise and i hope to catch up with you at times ' en route'

for those who didnt attend- ( YOU MISSED A 'blinking!' FANTASTIC EVENT

)

and roll on 2014 event-

i will upload some of the many many photos i took at the event in the next 24 hrs.....

Cracking day had by all, first boat show I've taken my 7 year old son to and he loved it.

Having not been modelling for a year or so (lack of interest) today has given me the enjoyment to crack on with building my models and who knows I might actually finish something lol

Top show plenty of people and plenty on show well done Beale and AT boatyard

Bring on next years show

Myself (Shipmate60), Dave (Dodes) and Jay (Jay Beazley) visited today.
The show seemed far better organised today.
For those that know Malc Wilson he was at the show for a while, looking a bit frail but so glad to see him.
Met a few usual suspects. Phil and Stef, Klunk, Guy Bagley, BobK, The Portsmouth Display Team, Alan and Debs from AT and glad to see Richard Howard looking good after his illness.
I would like to thank the organisers, Beale Park, Mid Thames Model Boat Club and A T Boatyard.
PS Only one minor niggle, did the coffee have to be that price!!!!!

Hi Guys, Just back from Beale, have to say this event was very well organised and run. A big thanks and well done to Alan, Chris, Paul and all at the A Team who have today put Beale back on the modelling calendar.
Also many thanks to everyone who sent there best wishes to Mel, we are both hoping she is fit and well to come to doncaster in a few weeks time.

Looking forward to Beale 2014

I concur - a really worthwhile show. Well done to everyone who helped make it such a success.

The only problem: when The Management and I arrived the hot food had run out - so we went to the main restaurant and ordered some but, after waiting 50 minutes for it to arrive, we complained and got our money back.

Mike & The Management

Well Steamboatboat Apprentice and I have just returned from a great weekend, for all those that missed it, yuo missed a pearl of a show, and expect to see you all there next year, and with free camping the social side is an extra bonus. Well done to the A Team Boatyard, Mid Thames MBC, Richard Howard and Beale park, you are to be congratulated (did miss the buttie wagon though...)
last night saw SB App and I helping the team get the Type 45 from the pond to the Thames, and this morning at 7 30 saw us down there helping to cheer them off on their voyage up and down the river (this involved lots of tea supplir=ed of course by the lovely "Debbie the cakes" )
10 am saw them set of with support from several full size boaters....good luck chaps we will be catching up with you along the way....and for those not there....

We at the Model Boat Association Dover had a great day at Beale Park, thanks to all involved in organising it. I am the one in the photos ( post 17 ) with arms folded and legs down the Funnel and that is Kelvin feeding his face behind the Loyal Mediator on our Stand.

Congratulations to all concerned,it looks like it was a great show,and well supported.I wish we could put on something like that down here,but with our lakes having so many restrictions,it would be virtually impossible.
Maybe I will make it to your excellent show next year.
Good luck to you all,and well done the organisers.

Not forgetting a Big thank you to Beale Park and Mid Thames for all there help.

Any Dates for 2014?

Len

Please accept my apology - I wasn't concentrating on your legs at the time! Also, it was the superb weathering on the Loyal Mediator that caught my eye - a quite brilliant model.
