Vintage model yachts took to Mooragh Park lake on Sunday as part of the latest Manx Model Boat Club event.

Members of the public also enjoyed the chance to have a go at steering a radio control yacht round a course.

Kim Holland said there was much interest in a model of Euterpe (Star of India) built by Doug Davison, along with other model yacht memorabilia. This year marks the 150th anniversary of her launch.

Kim said: ‘It was a grand afternoon. The weather was perfect, there was lots of interested people, and there was lots of yachts.

The next event will be the Milntown Pageant, postponed from last year, on June 9 on the Milntown Lake.
