St George Model Club Regatta, May 2006 Photo Gallery

  A Celebration!!!!   After a period of several months, the St. George Model Boat Club celebrated their 21st year as a club, but also the opening of their new facility in Ramsgate, Sydney.  Officially opened by the Mayor of the City of Rockdale during the afternoon, a great day was had by all.   Most other Clubs in the Sydney area attended with representatives from TF72, Maritime Model Club of NSW (Narrabeen) and the Hubertus Model Boat Club.   A good roll up of spectators came along too to help celebrate this momentous occasion.   Thanks for a great day.

Congratulations to St. George Model Boat Club for 21years.   "Bravo Zulu".

The good old St George venue with a face lift (half life refit). Note humungous flower class corvette at left.

Another view of face lift, & it’s a dirty rotten lie that the red sign reads “Beware Pew Rocks”.

Latest addition to the fleet, Michael Farrow’s racy 55m TENIX IPV in RAN livery, with cousin ARMIDALE next door.

Jim Campion’s River class OPV under construction, with Geoff Eastwood’s Indian frigate GODAVARI in the background.

A beautiful example of what else can be done (besides what ya’all are thinking) with an APS kit, U.S. fleet tug by a discerning member of St George club.

Another view of Mike Farrow’s 55m IPV HMAS "No Name", there should be a contest held to find her an appropriate name. First prize, model CG Philippine Sea.

A builders model of the proposed RAN Air Warfare Destroyer.  Eat your heart out Russ, & pray for some sanity, like the rest of us.

Move over Craig Laughton, a nuclear powered billy-cart, built on a Willies Jeep chassis, with a George Lucas inspired superstructure.

The enraptured audience, eagerly awaiting the 2 O’clock session of The Punch & Judy Show

Punch & Judy were arrested for domestic violence, so some fill in entertainment was hastily arranged by the Mayor of the city of Rockdale.

At interval, a 21st anniversary cake was served to the multitudes, notice Jim Cs flower class ”Bluebell” between 2 little girls heads! Oh! and big sister behind.
