Martin asks...."What are "arms" for, as seen on the model?"

To find the Goodies, or the Baddies O0  ....by SONAR array ......[sound navigation and ranging]

Even mounted on the Deck, hence above the water, they were classed a "Below Water Equipment'....so being an 'Above Water Weapons' person, I had no involvement :P

This was another highlight of the weekend, this young chap had built this huge Lego Titanic   and his parents had brought him down to the lake so he could show it off to us. ... he was so happy .... and so were we!







Of course, it would be been really good if I could remember his name .... if you see this young man, please get in touch,
 I have a Winners Medal for you!   :-))  :-))

I remember being excited when they introduced wheels & a light brick. Not that I ever owned any batteries to make it work!
Well done that young man.

Well done indeed! I was near by when the lad opened it up, and you could see the engines! Superb work by the Lego design team, and kudos to the young feller for building it up.

The Adamcraft dinghies look interesting and seem to sail quite well. Building in clinker, in any scale is difficult, well done to the builders, impressive. However it would be good to see more sailing craft at the event.

Always pleased to be proved wrong - unfortunately I was unable to attend and it would have been good to see the "Flyer" pilot cutter model, designed by Gary Webb, as I've built one but never seen another in real life.
