The results of our 6/12/16 races at Tualatin Commons have been posted on the Race Results page.

Thanks so much to the Portland Model Power Boat Association (pmpba.org) for such a fantastic event today at Tualatin Commons! Incredibly beautiful boats/ships! Thanks as well for their invitation to the Rose City Model Sailing Club (rcmsc.org) to participate alongside this wonderful event.

Thanks as well to Stewart for bringing a great contingent of sailors from his Hood River group. You were great fun, and thanks for putting up with our flukey Metro-area winds!

Here’s to continued relationship with both. It’s all toward the same goal (fun with boats), and I’m glad it works.

This morning your humble webmaster received a comment from someone who has been unable to pull up our sailing schedule on rcmsc.org. He clicks on the links to the schedule but nothing shows up. I sent him a PDF schedule to solve the immediate issue, but I am concerned if our website is not usable on all platforms and browsers.

I’m a die-hard Apple guy. I have no problem accessing the schedule on either my iPad or my MacBook, with either Chrome or Safari browsers. The reporter of the problem is unable to access on either a Windows 10 PC or an Android tablet. I would love to hear reports from folks using either of these platforms re: ability to see our schedule. This could help me troubleshoot a potential problem.

Please let me know.

Great news for Micro Magic fans. Micro Magic Race V2 kits (both Carbon and White) are at long last again available in the US:
