I’m camping Saturday night again to join in with the fun!

Boats being sorted out and trying to get Invincible moveable on the water in the four weeks we have left. My Glyn Guest Model almost complete and my part in the Secret 10 almost finalised.

A big thanks to Klunk for inviting the Model Boats editor Graham Ashby to the weekend so everyone on their best behaviour!

Looking forward to the weekend!

I will be arriving on the Saturday morning, camping over night, and leaving late Sunday.
Going flat out to at least get HMS Agincourt sailable with working guns, although by no means complete.
Fingers crossed. Going flat out !

Hello,
How deep is the water in the Lake at Wicky????.
I will be bringing another SMALL yacht, which has a rather deep keel !.
Been looking at photos of folk standing in the Lake, but how deep is it ??.
Has anybody sailed a new Marblehead Yacht there - - has a deeper keel than mine.
John.

Klunk · « **Reply #171 on:** May 08, 2018, 01:31:09 pm »

about 30 inches deep

Martin (Admin) · « **Reply #172 on:** May 08, 2018, 01:43:33 pm »

Actually it's 6 or 7' deep but you will need to bring your own JCB to facilitate that..... and probably a solicitor!

raflaunches · « **Reply #173 on:** May 08, 2018, 03:31:32 pm »

Hi Jay Dee

The lake has had Marblehead Yachts sail on it. It might scrape the keel on the campsite end of the lake but the car park end has plenty of room

JayDee · « **Reply #174 on:** May 08, 2018, 06:58:42 pm »

Hello,

Thanks a lot for the info !!!.
Another tiny yacht will be displayed
