Great Eastern at Etherow.

Yesterday had a great day at the lake with Bob the Abell and his Great Eastern!

Son John with his wife Jo and youngest daughter Ruth were there also to see his fishing boat on the water,

you will see it in the background of the video of Bob's Great Eastern laying it's cable across the lake also on the main video on the Etherow Model Boat Club site.

There was a great atmosphere there with the crowds watching the raft races and Martin Sutcliffe on his pedallo bike on the big lake and our club boats on our lake.

Some of the boats on the day.

Pepe and I had beans on toast in Bob's camper van at dinner time! Any afters Bob!.
