Yet another very enjoyable day for the club members who attended the Ellesmere Trade show.
An excellent result for Chris Behan with his latest model of an American LCAC (Landing Craft Air Cushion) hovercraft, shown in
photos above. Chris won Silver medal in the prestigious David Owen competition, Well done once again to Chris.
Jason, Nigel and Jabba had a good show with tug towing demonstrations, again photos shown above.
Traders were not present in very large numbers as before, but those who were there were well supported by all.
The hot weather kept large numbers away from this event but did not deter the hardy enthusiasts from attending.
Alan Wyatt won 2nd place with his steam powered lake cruiser and Phil Bowker winning 1st place in Scratch built scale power with his
Japanese inshore fishing boat ‘Shoseimaru’
Once again, congratulation to our winning club members.
