Model Boat Racing Clubs

It cannot be emphasised enough just how important it is to join a model club. This is not just for Model Power Boat Racing, but for all forms of model boating. The most important reason is that the club will be able to arrange insurance cover for you through the governing association. This is normally included in your annual membership fee.
  
You will not be able to operate a radio-controlled or powered model without this insurance and will be barred from entering any competition without proof of insurance.

The beginner will appreciate advice and help existing club members will assist in preparing and helping to tune a beginners boat. This is important, as there are no commercially available kits for these type of boats. You buy the components and build it yourself with very few (if any) instructions.
There are many competitions between the spring and autumn months for Model Power Boat Racing. These involve Local, National and International events.
