Original Toronto Star caption: One of the most popular features for families visiting the show is the Metro Marine Modellers operating their intricate; radio-controlled scale models in a 30-by--60-foot pool in the 300-seat arena. They're also on hand to discuss boat building with spectators. Don Brounshidle of Buffalo; N.Y.; says he need to wear his MIckey ouse ears to operate his Mickey Mouse boat. Hobie catamarans (right) are among the 20 types.
