Gauteng Model Boat Club

Come and visit us on our open day. Last Sunday of each month 13H00 onwards or check out our website Gauteng Model Boat club for the calender

Yesterday, Hein Pretorius and I enjoyed breakfast at The Fat Olive Country Restaurant, Muldersdrift next to the lake.We've never been here before ... can't give you a reason why not! But our main reason to visit was remote model boats ... from the Gauteng Model Boat Club, based in Emmarentia.Chatted to both the chairman, Andreas and vice chairman, Neil ... It was the perfect day for boats!!!Various kinds of boats entertained us! A young lad, maybe 8? had a small speedboat ... and my golly, did he manoeuvre that boat on the dam!!!! It was really a treat. After a while, the boat stopped and then it was Operation Rescue! Sadly, we didn't think to take photos or a video. Another speedboat nudged him and 2 of the bigger boats helped to get it close to the side.Do check out the Gauteng Model Boat Club's calendar .... this coming Sunday, 21 August at Emmarentia Dam, they have a sailboat competition!!! You may just be inspired to build your own model boat!
