Radio Controlled Yachting

About the group

Ed Gillis

This group has a number of boats built for all to sail. We also have some that are partially built if you would like to get into that part of the hobby. We offer 1 or 2 opportunities each week for the members and guests to sail. The boats we most often use are 1 meter long, not motorized and sail well.

There are days when we practice and days when we hold actual races which are scored just like the large boat regattas. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. The boats are easy to sail because the sails are controlled by one lever and the rudder by the other.

The waterbodies we most often sail are Flesherton Pond and the Bond Pond on the property of James and Mary Elizabeth.
