Hey Charlie, I hope to make it. Been busy on the new mold which is done now.

There is a bottom half mold and now a top half mold with lateral rakers/keels, so it should be a lot easier to make a hull. So if I make it to Church Lake, maybe I can bring a new hull?

Bring your new hull if you can; bring a surface runner if you don't have a sub.

I am/have invited some of my buddies from my old model boat club to our gathering and they said they might make it. Both of these guys fly r/c electric park flyers and both have boats. We will see what they bring. One guy has a camera on his plane and makes some good video. Would be interesting to see a strafing run shot on the subs...

Don't panic these guys if they bring a plane they are real sharp and a lot of fun.

Hope to see you there!

Well,

You missed it guys! Great weather and some good guys meeting and sailing their models. I think this was the first time I had the only running sub at the lake. Here are a few shots of the fun!

Great shots. Any idea on

Great shots. Any idea on how deep church lake is?

Great detail on that 4" sub.

The depth of the lake

The depth of the lake is unknown to me but I think Warren Wilson has measured it with his remote depth finder.

The devil is in the detail when building such a small model
