We are very excited to host a trial event at Ratanga Park on 4 August 2024.

You are invited to join in the fun FREE of Charge. All we require is for you to install a Digital Access Card on your mobile device to prove that you are an authorised user.

But before you do that, please take note of the following:

The Pond is managed by the Century City Property Owners Association (CCPOA) and their rules apply first and foremost.

Secondly, no SPEEDBOATS will be allowed due to the noise levels. (Not even brushed electric ones).

This is a social meeting, not a competition. It may or may not be the only one at this venue. It’s up to you!

Centurion Model Boats is not a club. It’s an eventing business and as such, they are governed by the Model Boating Association of South Africa’s Code of Conduct. Individuals who have been sanctioned for improper conduct will not be granted an Access Card. Century City’s Security Personnel have the right to remove individuals who uses the pond without an Access Card.

Other matters to be aware of

The closest gate to the “launching area” is Ratanga Park Gate 2.

There are no public toilets at the Designated Model Boating Pond. Toilets are 150m away from the pond.

Movement of RC boats are restricted to the demarcated area.

How to use the Access Card

Once installed, you will have access to a few useful resources. Simply scroll to the bottom of the card face and tap on the three dots. There you will find more information.

Whenever you are asked to present the Access Card, please open the App and swipe to the card.

If the card does not show an animated seal in the bottom left corner, it is not a valid card and could be a photo or screenshot of a valid card.
