Great builds there Chris. Plenty of variation.

Despite the cold, it looks like a really nice turn out too.

Thanks for posting your great pictures.

Some real crackers there Chris. Hugely impressive spread of subjects as well. I particularly love the Victorian steam launch..…was that one actually steam powered?
Pity about the weather…..hopefully better next time.

Some cracking ships on display Chris, loved your X floaty ship, superb

Delighted you had a great day out, looks a great lake

HI Bob m8ty yes there was a lot of models on display an the public loved them but since the council has put down double yellow line not as many people lookin as there used to be as nowhere out side the pond to park which is a shame really hope you ok both

YES Pete i think you ar right but its not always like this some days when we are sailing up there its bueatifull warm wind as some yrs back there were small trees if i remember rightly where our cars are now parked an they used to cut the wind down but i heard that the yahty guys complained as not enough wind so the coucil cut down the trees dont know if its true though

Very impressive lot There Chris.........I love the BN81 Skirbeck! Too bad about them messing up the access to the Pond....I;m sure a lot of folks would really enjoy seeing all those "floaters" out and about. Thanks for posting em up........your Norfolk is the Bomb!
