Hi Robin,
i guess it all comes to those that put there nose into places, i didn't ask for the job, i was given it by the German Federation NAUTICUS which is the equivalent of the MPBA.
for the past 4 years and the last two Scale World Champs (Navigation Scale) i have been the Team Cap. 2005 in the Chech Republic, 2007 St. Petersburg Russia, and have been asked to do the job again at the next Scale Champs being Held in Germany, more Information if interested in attending
http://www.wm-pirna-2009.de/in the last Nationals in Germany i came in Second through a stupid driving error, 0,33 points behind first place, this was in the Kit Class with a Deansmarine, Lis Terkol.
lets hope that some Brits attend this Years World Championships!
