any boat clubs/groups in San Diego?
any boat clubs/groups in San Diego?
Im curious also, if there's any clubs in San Diego also...
NAMBA Dist 19 usually holds an annual race here, but it is salt water and they had to cancel this years event due to a steep increase in park fees.
We're seeing the increase in park fees here in Az, too.
I'm not aware of any current organized FE running in San Diego, or any fresh water access. But, if you guys find something or organize something, keep us posted.
Anyone run FE's in San Diego??
There are a few. But the pond sometimes gets taken over by the sailboat guys.

dom.. do you run at the mission bay pond??
anyone run boats at Otay lakes or santee lakes?
I used to run my scale subs at Santee, but now i run my FE at mission bay pond.. I would run my boat at Santee. Do they care about speed boats there? i know they don't care about scale boats,like military boats.
i just took my boat out they are cool with it. i guess you can run boats only at lake 2 in santee. tomorrow im gonna check out Otay lakes.
Ever go to the pond in mission bay??? Plus you gotta pay to get into Santee right??
yea its cool. i went out and watched the sail boats. i want to get out there soon
Well... i'll probably go down there this sunday, hopefully to run my boat... if my new ESC comes in. I smoked it last time i was there..
im waiting for my BL system as well. good times
What are they charging at Santee to get in??
if you walk in its free but if you drive in its 3 bux
Not bad.... might have to go out there, saltwater at the bay is a killer on stuff....
I think there is a sink large enough to rinse your boat at the bathrooms.

Hey, just caught this thread. Brad [V-Spec] runs FE in SD ; give him a shout (PM).
How about a road trip up to Legg Lake in L.A. sometime? Or maybe an event at Questtek Joe's private lake in Lake Forest - half way {or so}. To run at Legg must have NAMBA card - $ 45 / year, sign up after October & it's good for 2011. Just a thought to get more of us together.

Hey, I am also in San Diego county, I run a FE cat dual brushless (EKOS). I have ran it at Lake Poway, Hodges, and once in Santee (far of drive for me) I am located in Ramona. I was also wondering where every other rc boaters are, theres alot of lakes out here!
Im in SD, I run at Mission Bay Model Yacht Pond in the spring and summer. Just ran there yesterday with my new Motley Crew and it's on rails in the mid 50's! If I'm not working I'm up for meeting up there and or just helping with questions, setups etc anytime.

Where is the Model Yacht Pond?? theres so many ponds there and bay is big.. is there membership required?
It's on vacation island, http://www.sandiego.gov/park-and-rec...ilities1.shtml
No membership and no fees. Just make sure you bring some fresh water and rinse and clean your boats well (Before) you pack up and go home as it's salt water.
The water there is very salty. You will need a bottle of fresh water to rinse at the end of the day. Things corrode real fast. But it is a very quiet relaxing place.
