Well like a lot of folks, I also found this site by accident on my rare trolling around looking for model type things (and yes I found the other type that had more curves than the normal boat
) Having spent my life (until the first Mayhem) doing straight running (the oldest form of model boating....even around before Pooh Sticks) I found all these other sides of our hobby, so I just had to join,and of course attend the first Mayhem (in the soggy corner) just to exhibit, but in the end I did fire up on of the steamers and ran that......much to the amusement / wonder / whys does he not get some radio gear / type comments....and since then, well....what can I say I have met and made some great friends via this site, got a great understanding of all other sides of the hobby (well boats that you can steer.....who would have thought
). I have given some advice, got some great help, made some bits for Bill when he was building the springer.....oh yes built myself several springers and even built some radio boats....shock..
Its a great place to be, and I cannot again wait to meet up with all the friends I have made, and look forward to making some more.
Well done Martin (and Bradders) from me, and I suspect all members for making this largest (virtual) model boat club in the wold and introducing us all to each other.........
No longer the quiet life in the shed.....just total Mayhem
