A young boy worked the controls at one of the radio-control stations. Beyond him were the mountains that bordered the lake upon which the boats floated.

The control stations were numbered. Here were units 5 and 6. The station's steering wheel was shaped like an old-timed ship's wheel.

The lake was bounded by snow capped mountains. Four boats floated near a volcano and a light house. The object was to bump the target. For example, if a boat bumped the target on the light house island, the light house would shine.

A sign on a post instructed those controlling boats to, "Hit Targets."
