Basingstoke Model Boat Club

The club meets regularly at Eastrop Park, a beautiful and well-maintained public park in the east of Basingstoke. The park has two ponds, and the club uses the smaller one, which is ideal for model boating. The pond has an adjacent car park, which makes it convenient to access. The park also has a café, a play area, a wildlife area, and other facilities that you can enjoy.

The club has a diverse range of models, from yachts to scale models, from steam boats to electric boats. You can see them in action on the water, or admire them on display. You can also learn from the members, who are always happy to share their knowledge and experience. You can ask them for advice on how to get started, how to choose a model, how to build or modify a model, how to operate or maintain a model, or anything else related to model boating.

The club also organises various events throughout the year, such as competitions, exhibitions, workshops, and social gatherings. You can join these events and have fun with other modellers. You can also participate in the club’s charity work, which supports local causes and organisations.

Basingstoke Model Boat Club is more than just a club. It is a family of modellers who love model boating and want to share it with others. If you are looking for a hobby that is fun, rewarding, and relaxing, then model boating is for you.
