    I also claim, that the gate in the rock firstly was propery crosed by two wildcat . Maby M20 was first, but i didn’t sow that. So first in F18 was 2 Wildcat (Bundock and Mouriniac), then 2 nacra’s, then we were (pol4 – eXploder), and just behinde us was Misha on wildcat. Some other boat didn’t cross the rosks in proper place!!!!!

    When making the list on the run I didn reckognize you guys. I’ve aggregate the brand to your position.
    Congratulations for that 11th within the Long distance race.

    They´ve should place some rc boats on those special points, gates.

    Really good for a brand new F18, the Exploder from Poland.
    Check Labels for pics on the “Exploder”.

    Send your reports, pics and impressions about the Exploder if you like I publish them her.

    You manage a 4th and a 6th in course racing right?

    Poland has 4 places at Worlds, do you intend to take another Exploder?
