If you have RC sailing boats, go to Howth Yacht Club on Sunday afternoons
or to the National Yacht Club where they race RC Lasers also Sunday afternoons.

Some years ago, RC powerboats (including a submarine) gathered at the pond in UCD on Sat or Sun afternoons. Perhaps they still do?

Yup HYC still has a pretty strong 1M class going, jeez that brings back memories. I built a mandarin back in the day when it originally kicked off

I got some boats that i modded a lot with brushless and lipo and other stuff.

They go like the clappers, i go for speed not looks.
