 Welcome to the Patterson Lakes Radio Model Yacht Club's website. The club was formed in 1981 by a group dedicated to radio sailing as a sport. Re-locating from Patterson Lakes to the Patterson River at the then newly formed National Water Sports Centre. This venue has proven to be popular to club members and as a venue for State and National competitions.
The club sails most Tuesdays except January at the National Water Sports Centre, Riverend Road, Bangholme - Melways 97 K2. We also sail on a few Saturdays for special events. On Sundays the club sails Micro Magics at the Waterways estate. Sundays is a more casual day however we will now be holding a handicap series for Micro Magics on the 4th Sunday of each month. The Club now sails Lasers at Waterways on Thursday nights during dailight sailing and on Sundays after the Micro Magics sailing.
Our main classes are the Micro Magic, Laser and the International One Metre (IOM) classes
Full details of all sailing can be found on our Calendar page.
Sailing on Tuesdays and Sundays starts at 1 pm. Many of the races are sternchasers allowing for a mixture of classes and levels of skill to compete together.
Visitors and new members are always welcome and even if you do not own a boat come along and see what this great sport is all about.
 Mario has been compiling our Past Champions and this page can now be found on the site. If anyone can fill in the gaps please let him know.
All enquries can be made through this website or to the club secretary :

On Sunday April 29th the PLRMYC hosted the Laser State Titles. Congradulations go to Scott Flemming for winning and sailing the perfect series. As no results have yet been posted I have included a copy of unofficial results.
At the AGM held on the 15th May Frank Katersstood down as Commodore after 10 years. He has seen the club grow and adopt fleets of both Micro Magics and Lasers. We are the premier club for both these classes as well as the only club operating on 2 days a week and during summer 3 days a week. We are all thankful for all the work Frank has put in and plan to continue growing the club which is the premier club in Victoria, with the largest membership and most activity. If you have any problems please speak to a member of the committee as it is our aim to continue to improve the club.
