Radio Control Fleet

Come and join the HBYC Radio Control Group, sailing 'one design' Dragon Force 65's.  


There are presently 23 boats being sailed or in the assembly process, so lots of knowledge and wisdom available for beginners.  Formal races will be scheduled, in the mean time contact either Ryan Blackstock (0422 099 658) or Stephen Cheney at racing@hbyc.org.au and head down to 'the pond' adjacent to the 'concrete jetty' where practice sessions are held.
