Regatta 2018 - Naracoorte, SA

Post by fastone045 »

Hi All,

I have created this topic so members can post comments and photos about and from the upcoming National Regatta at Naracoorte.

I will also create a photo album in the Photos and Videos sections so bulk photos can also be loaded so members not able to attend can at least see the action.

Regards Craig

Gave a shout out to the Annual Regatta on Facebook night before last, so far we've reached almost 6,000 people with it.

With regards to the sunken USS Cheyenne, when HMS Triumph went down to investigate it also ran foul of radio interference in the vicinity. I had the video operating and recorded the Triumph severely twitching the hydroplanes and rudder and the speed control went into reverse when it got close to the Cheyenne. The Triumph also found another dodgy spot in the North West area of the lake, again on the bottom - last year and the same place again this year.
Fortunately for the USS Cheyenne the Jolly giant came in and rescued her, and was soon in action again.

good shot Tom!! :tup: :tup:

He was a bit nervous at first but got a real kick out of operating USS California (and was most glad that he did not hit anything!)

Awesome photos guys and looks like you all had a great time with some awesome models on the water. Couldn't make it this year but hope to over for next years regatta. You guys definitely have some superb sailing venues. Wish we had the same over here.

Cheers,
Garry.

Hi All,
There are now 3 videos from the Regatta at Naracoorte available for viewing.
My submarine HMS Triumph recorded over 2 hours of video from a few patrols on the Saturday and more on Sunday.
I have condensed these down to two patrols. These two videos will offer a different perspective on the event

A Morning Patrol:
[youtubehd] https://youtu.be/QJ5RRzYlTOI [/youtubehd]

An Afternoon Patrol:
[youtubehd] https://youtu.be/w2X3cQgZVSc [/youtubehd]

There is also a Sunday Sailing video (not from the submarine):
[youtubehd] https://youtu.be/44BLsGJ2STA [/youtubehd]

Hope these provide some entertainment.

Regards
Haig
