The session lasts for 180 minutes, from 10am to 1pm, providing ample time to set up, race, and socialise. It's ideal for families or individuals looking to connect with a community passionate about model boating.

The activity involves bringing your own radio control model powerboat, as the club focuses on hands-on participation.
