Currently there are about 90 members who gather every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday from mid-afternoon and throughout the remainder of the evening, weather and wind conditions permitting. Oftentimes club members are more than willing to let others try to operate their model boats.
The cost of the boats and their radio equipment can range from under $100 up to thousands of dollars. The boats range from that of fast electric model boats, sail model boats, and scale model boats.
