Navy Day 2012 was held on 20th May. The cold and blustery weather resulted in a very slow start with few attendees but proceedings warmed up around ten o clock with many visitors and a few more members arriving. We did manage to get models onto the water and put on a show for the visitors.

It was a grey and cool weekend with Navy Day held on the Sunday, David McNair-Taylor took some photos when not Commanding his Warships. The day before, the SRCMBC web site captured a sneak preview of David's new Type 45 Destroyer under-going acceptance trials in preparation for the following day. Apparently problems with one of the engine-room computers has delayed hand-over of the vessel to the Navy!

With apologies for the delay, a video of racing action from The Metropolitan and Southern District Championships held at Setley Pond on Saturday 12th May is now available. There's no attempt to record the events of each race... just the spirit of the competition! Remember that the larger "YouTube" viewing area allows you to see the movie in different formats ranging up to full screen and High Definition (720p); however if you have a slow link the smaller "Thumbnail movie" may give you a better view.

The Metropolitan and Southern District Championships held at Setley Pond on Saturday 12th May provided a chance to photograph some of the Sailing Section R36R yachts in action. It was a sunny day with a fresh northerly breeze and racing went on well into the afternoon, quite an exhausting event for those competing!
