G'day ALL,
We had a beauty of a day here in Adelaide with a good turnout of Local members and some good running with HMS HOOD making her 1st re-powered run in home waters,Jim Warren had HMAS Vampire sporting a coat of paint, Scotty had USS Scott DDG-995 (KIDD class) back in service for a good run and we managed some well timed OOW evolutions with USS Scott and USS Long Beach CGN-9 for several minutes until we had 2 go evasive 2 avoid ducks and a little dingy!! Richee had his completed Lipo powered USS Saucy inaction, Vince had FFG HMAS Sydney running, and Brenton had DE HMAS Parramatta , Graham D and new member Tom rolled up without ships, GD is still on the walking wounded list with pinched nerve in neck and Tom is at the building a hull stage on HMS Hermes R12. And my tug hull for "Southern Titan" got a test run briefly..
Here R a couple of teaser pic's until the mission report gets posted!!

Cheers Bruce

Looking forward to the Mission Report details Bruce.

Fore and aft mooring can look quite impressive, especially when you have a large number of models all lined up.

It works well reducing the space LB requires from about a 8m dia circle down to a 3.5m long box and prevents unnecessary damage from changes in wind direction in the shallow section we like 2 use as the anchorage.
