A blissful sight.

Approaching sunset from the North side of Aubery pond.

A quick turn to starboard. This P295 Royal Navy patrol vessel is super-detailed and looks very spritely.

A diesel-electric paddle steamer?! You must be joking! Not at all.

Built in 1935, DEPV Talisman was the first of her kind. This ultra-realistic scale model of DEPV Talisman is by Norman Murray.

In her very recognisable Caledonian MacBrayne livery, here is Alex Fletcher's scale model Island Class car ferry 'Rhum'.

The original vessel was bult in 1974 to a design based on Second World War landing craft. She had a two-part folding ramp at the bow, an open plan car deck incorporating a small turntable immediately aft and a sheltered area of passenger accommodation at the stern. The wheelhouse was above the passenger accommodation and the main mast above the ramp at the bow. A radar mast sat on top of the bridge, just forward of the small funnel and engine exhaust.

'Rhum' still plies her trade for Arranmore Ferries in County Donegal.

Tom McClymont's exciting German feuer-boot Dusseldorf.

Pirates of Aubery Park! Jim Martin's Cutty Sark draws eyes every time.

Billing Boats BB476 Nordkap Trawler.

This Nordkap scale model boat features plank on frame construction, carefully laser pre-cut keel from plywood and frame components, wooden superstructure and decks. The original vessel was built in 1970 here in Britain.

Peter's wonderful paddle steam tug, 'Strongbow', which features real sounds that have been sampled from the PS Waverley!

Another vessel named 'Strongbow', this is Alasdair Woods powerful looking tugboat.

Bill Nesbitt's Clyde Coaster 'Jura'.

Dougie Ogilvie's very interesting looking scale cargo vessel 'Fife Coast'.

Roddy Fullarton's 'Zephyr' sailing boat.

The SS 'Arran Mail' in 1/32 scale by Jimmy Fletcher.

A single-hatch ship built in Dumbarton that entered service in the mid-30's, she carried both cargo and passengers, and of course as the name suggests, she was for many years the mail boat for the islands here in the west.

In the 1950s, after having been transferred to Channel Island service and renamed 'Saint Ernest', she was lost with all hands.

John Scott's muscular looking tug, 'Scotsman'.

Not all of the action is on the pond!

2022's event was held on Sunday the 4th September - the final day of the town's Viking Festival.
