World Championships 2005 HPB in Wackersdorf/Bavaria - 19.-21. August 2005

Dear Heavy Duty Water Pilots!

You may know that the World Championships Human Powered Boats 2005 in Denmark were cancelled because of a lack of lakes... We hoped to be able to replace it by championships in Austria again, at the Wörthersee. But also the Austrians cancelled it.

What to do? We looked for a new place in the middle of Europe and found a solution: In Wackersdorf-Rauberweiherhaus, in the south east of Germany, there is a lake called “Murner See”. The terrain is nice: Best water quality, a small amphitheatre open to the lake where spectators can sit and watch the races. For camping we have a place beside it, close to the water. We may go there with tents, boats, caravans and cars, but not drive cross. We have very good toilets nearby in a real building and hot showers 5 min from there.

Saturday evening there will be a big party in the amphitheatre, open for the public, where they expect hundreds or thousands of guests. So we will have many spectators! Of course there will be guards for the boats at night. Those who prefer to sleep and not take part in the party can go to the “Campingpark Murner See” www.see-camping.de. It is 300m from the amphitheatre.

The starting fee includes: camping (near the amphitheatre), parking, participation in the races, 2x breakfast, 2x lunch, 2x dinner, lots of drinks (including beer) and big party with laser show
