Where We Sail

The Pond (behind Apple Ford)

The Maryland Model Yacht Club races Victorias and any one meter r/c sailboats (ODOMs, Seawinds, etc.) on  the third Saturday of each month from March to November.  EC-12s are raced (basically) the 1st and last Saturday of the month, but check the EC-12 tab for more specifics.

For the 2012 Season, we race at "THE POND", near Apple Ford Dealership in Columbia, MD. (directions below).
