Hi PD,s this weekend wasn't the best i had,

Yesterday i left my home for what i thought could be a nice sailing at the Sihlsee this is about 40Km or 25 miles from my home, when i arrived at the lake i realised my remote control is still at home so i went home for the day.

Today i left for another lake it is called the Waeggitaler See, i arrived there started to prepare the boat for the sailing and there was a wrong cable for recharcing the battery this one didn't fit to the speed controller

OK back home, this time 32Km or 20 miles one way, pick up the right cable and back to the lake, there i realised i forgot on my first visit to switch off the remote control so the battery was flat

One more time back home to chance the batt with one from another remote control now i made a test at home to make sure everything is working and off we go for the sailing back to the Waeggital, this time the fog was so thick you could only see for 20-30 metres. I thought i should have stood in bed today but this isn't something who stop's me from doing what i want to do so i left for another small lake this time 75km or 47 miles away.

OK the sun was down but it was good enough for a sailing of about 45 minutes, all together 260km or 185 miles for such a short sailing.

WOW. Worth travelling that distance for those fantastic surroundings though

Hi all,

i took also three videos from abord the model but the file size is to big to post it more then 200MB so when i have found a way to cut them or resize them i will post it to the video section.

regards Hans

I have lots of those days
