You guys will have to take many pics of all the boats to share with us all on here they cant be there, pleeeease. Looks like this is a pretty special meet where the special boats come out to shine! These boats are better to look at than a nice gun action. Maybe its the German blood in me coming out, but just cant get enough of that fine engineering!!
All the best,
Dion.

If you can ever make it to an event, its worth it. I don't run much any more but go just to take a few pictures, mingle and enjoy the sights & sounds.

Mario ... you sure have to visit the Heilbronn-meeting sometime.

Bring some sleeping-gear , sure there will be someone with spare-room , in tent or caravan/campervan.

Micha Rissmann showed us a beautiful hull and engine-setup at the Eersel-meeting in Holland :

Yes HendricX, you're right, maybe next year, must be an amazing experience. I lovebig boats, and if all the best boats in europe find themselves in this meeting i surely have to be there sometime. Boats like this Reckless with that powerplant you don't see every day, neither that Martini in the pic, very nice.

Regards

This year I had so much prop-work , I bought stuff myself , payd camping ,
visit with about 50 others the 'Chinese' restaurant , payd my diesel ,
and still came home with more money as I started with :-)

You can see me doing propwork in front of my campervan in one of the pictures. [link=http://www.nwm-modelboat.de/Dateien/Heilbronn2012/HB009.jpg]L I N K [/link]
YES I did have a 'mask' .. but not needing it on SS-props.


And of course I did some exhaust rebuilding too , owner went home with a big smile .
He came with a hull doing 74Km/h , and went home with that boat doing 102Km/h.

still chine walk issues.
Did not play with power-spark adjustments and bigger props, first job is to avoid chine walk.
Then increase speed (currently those 7516/3 by dasboata are too small as I think.

Lovely boat! I way prefer the look of engineered toys rather than the more agricultural styles. excellent work!

yesterday I have had another run with that and chine walk is history. Solution: I have used very long ruder blades.
Unfortunately the guy with the video camera was not present.
Will show some pics later.
