About Us

Radio control (RC) sailing boat racing is a fun sport for everyone. It is a socially engaging, mind stimulating activity for people of all ages from 14 to 84+ years. No sailing knowledge is required to start.

Begin by trying out a ‘club’ boat or buying your own “off the shelf”. For hobby builders there is the option of constructing a kit boat.

We have a positive supporting environment with a spirit of good will and fair play. All racing is conducted under International Yacht Racing Rules. When your boat is “in the groove” at high speed responding exactly to your fingertip control, the sensation will be addictive.

With the option of six different days during the week to enjoy racing, join us now at Emerald Lakes as a skipper or spectator.

Our many skippers sail one or more of five RC boat types namely, from small to large: Dragon Force 65, Dragon Flite 95, RC Laser, IOM (International One Metre) and 10R (Ten Rater).
