Sailing, building, and socialising—welcome to the Gloucester & District Model Boat Club (GDMBC), your home for model boating in Gloucester and the surrounding area. Founded in 1990, our club has developed into a friendly community of around 120 members who enjoy sailing electric, sail, and steam-powered RC boats (no IC boats allowed). We host our activities at several local venues—check our Sailing Locations page for more details. You’re always welcome to join us; just look at the Calendar for sailing times.

Join us at GDMBC in Gloucester and enjoy competitive sailing opportunities, friendly waterside meet-ups, and regular newsletters and events. We also organize visits to other clubs where you can showcase your RC boat and connect with fellow enthusiasts.

Are you looking for a relaxing way to spend your afternoons, or perhaps you're a seasoned builder interested in joining the GDMBC community in Gloucester? Whether you’re into building intricate boat models like scale steam launches, sleek sailing yachts, or remote control electric motorboats, the GDMBC is the perfect place for you!
