The weather can vary a lot . From sunny 25 degree celcius to cold and rainy 12 degree celcius.
In april night frost is very good posible overhere also.

We had our 10 th meeting this year and we have had only got two meatings with bad weather, sofar we are blessed.
As always its a lot of fun, meeting rcboat friends at these kind of events.
Organised by our two power boat clubs Dutch Powerboot Racing Team and Xtremercboats.
Mostly its a dutch and german population but there have been also gests from belgium ,uk and france.
Its not realy a race weekend but more driving boats for the fun of it with only one or two short fun raceheats , and in between some demo's from big and special boats like 2.4 meter boats , turbine driven boats and some electric boats .
Electric vary from 30 cm to 1.7 meters .

Next weekend we have our first of two all electric boat meeting days ,who are held each year.(april and in oktober)
These only are one day meetings on a much smaller scale ,not like the big 3 day Eersel event.
This meeting is mainly visited by members of our D.E.P Forum. (Dutch Electric Forum. Ran by our modurater Michiel "focused")
We will post some pictures from that meeting also.
