Fairey on Facebook

[AustinPowers]

Just discovered the Fairey Enthusiasts Club on Facebook.

Here's the link.

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Fairey-Enthusiasts-Club/220368988008?v=wall

or search for Fairey and it'll come up at the top of the list.

Its the place for all enthusiasts of all Fairey powerboats. You don't need to own one and being Facebook it's free to join in. You can post pics of models too, ask questions and take part in discussions about all things Fairey.

That reminds me, I must dig that old Huntsman model out of the loft, such lovely lines, modern boats just don't do it in the same way, do they?

I think they are over rated....

There is an active owners club too http://www.faireyownersclub.co.uk/

The Fairey owners costs a packet to join and isn't dedicated to Fairey like it was, apparently a few on the committee don't even sail Fairey boats.

Just seen this on the Fairey Enthusiasts Facebook page, its really clever.

I think you're a little mis-informed.

The annual membership is £30.

All of the committee own Fairey boats with the exception of one Supermarine Swordfish which is an Alan Burnard hull in any case.
