Club 500 speed boats are aptly named, due to the fact that the boats are approximately 515mm long. The models are easy to build and maintain, and being a single class, they can be used for club or inter-club competition. There is a standard list of rules we use at Margam, with the only change being that we race four races per meeting, consisting of four laps.

We use the standard 'M' shaped course. These are navigated clockwise or anti-clockwise. In addition, we do a simple oval shaped course to allow new entrants a chance to get used to racing.
