There appears to be some sort of blue dye in the water!
@MERSEYSIDEBYTHESEAАй бұрын
the pond has blue food dye added ,it is non toxic so fish are ok but the light at the bottom of pond ,due to the dye is not letting enough light for weed to grow ,that's why we are always open.

I have driven fast boats before without collision and presently driving scales boats now which is so so easy to drive. It's almost impossible to collide especially at those speeds when you have way enough time to correct mistakes. Unless there is a mechanical or electrical malfuntion. Very nice boats though.

I am two months into building my Imara Twin Screw Tug. It indeed, IS a work of art, but not for the beginner builder. I just completed the Krick Models Happpy Hunter in Teal, Red, and White.

Hello John , Enjoy your new project , we now have three at the club , did video called the three Imara's, on this channel about 4 weeks ago, I have the one in this video (Harbour Tug), and have run out of space to add anymore things , have been sailing her for the past 10 years , (see first video I did )you can see she has changed over the years, love the smoke it adds the finishing touch I think. but it's your baby and you will be very proud of her as it is the best model by far on the current market , you will have the same degree of success as on your Kirk Models and you will also have many happy years sailing your IMARA . and adding a bit more and a bit more. over the years 😊👍
