The SRCMBC at other Model Boat Displays

Portsmouth_Navy_Day_2008/ Apart from the Club Charity Exhibitions at Highcliffe and Lymington and supporting local Lifeboat Days, SRCMBC members display their models at various other events. For many years the SRCMBC participated in the Romsey/Chandlers Ford "Model World" Exhibition and also in the Marwell Zoo Exhibition organised by Eastleigh and District Model Boat Club. More recently, David McNair-Taylor and David Reith have displayed their warship models as members of the Surface Warship Association. Venues have included the Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth (photo left) and Bursledon Brickworks. Photographs of some of these events are in the albums below.

David McNair-Taylor participated in the Portsmouth "Meet the Navy Day" on the 11th July. There's some photos of his models, but mainly photos of the Navy's brand new Type 45 Destroyer, HMS Daring. Lots of flat, radar deflecting, surfaces so looks like an easy ship to build and you could sell one cheap to the Navy! However, apparently all the expense is in the computers below decks.
