The San Diego Argonauts are dedicated to promoting radio control model boating and racing.
Saturday mornings , you will find members of the Scale Division gracefully navigating the pond with electric or steam powered scale models of warships, fishing trawlers, luxury yachts and other intricately detailed model watercraft.
Saturday afternoon , as the wind picks up, naturally gives way to members of the Sail Division . These radio control sail boats are marvels of hi-tech building techniques, using space age materials such as carbon fiber, mylar, etc. Just like their full scale counterparts across the bay.
Sunday brings out the entertaining and exciting Power Division . Most of these boats are driven by 2 stroke gas engines, similar to what you would find in your weed whacker. These boats reach speeds of 55+ mph on stock engines, and with a few modifications, the boats can achieve speeds in excess of 60 mph. In addition, you will find some very fast electric boats and even nitro boat or two.
Bring your family and friends down to the pond and enjoy a beautiful afternoon!
We meet weekly at the model yacht pond located in the heart of San Diego’s Mission Bay recreational area. The pond, built by the City of San Diego, is designed and used only for model boating. Located near Sea World and other maritime attractions, the model boat pond is bordered by a large grass area ideal for spectators, picnicking and just enjoying our San Diego weather.
See you at The Pond!

SAN DIEGO MEGA YACHT. With its sleek design, the San Diego delivers a fantastic ride that is in no way inferior to its original. The large hull length of 1.27 m and the slim design make for a great and faithful appearance on the water, which reflects the elegance of such luxury yachts.
