Members of Task Force 72 spend up to two years completing their model boats and the annual sailing weekend in Wagga is the ultimate test of their endurance.
Steve Batcheldor of Wagga has been making model boats since his teenage years and tested his latest creation at the weekend.
Mr Batcheldor sources plans for his boats and builds them from scratch without the help of pre-prepared modelling kits.
“It’s a fair bit of a challenge,” he said.
“But you conquer it and think how good that feels.”
Almost 35 members from across the country visited Wagga at the weekend with several hundred members of the public stopping by out of curiosity.
