eFoil Meetup Germany / Netherlands 2021

Any nice German spots towards the Dutch border?

In Germany it seems to be legal to drive only on jet ski tracks, some tracks on the river rhine for example.

I’m trying to get a authorization for our meet-up on a nice lake near Xanten, but I’m not optimistic.

My favorite location is De Bijland, nice beach with Camper area, traffic-favorable position…

Our location should have a power connection for charging our batteries.

It does indeed look good for flying around. Its right on the border of NL/DE. 1.5hour drive from the west of NL.

Looks like max speed there is 9km/h.

There ist a speed zone, see map. But I would talk with the authorities, if we can use it for our meeting.

I dont need an outlet. But if multiple would like to charge also multiple outlets are needed charging would make sense if you can fill the battery in an hr or 2 that mean 1kW per charger easy. So only 2/3 chargers per socket.

JvdZ nice find i like the spot!!

I would leave the speed in the middle. Just ask for the electric foiling :sweat_smile:

Thats almost everywhere in NL… only some rivers or lakes with special permits allow speeds above 20kmh. I wouldn’t care to much with our no-wake crafts.

For finding the date, I created a doodle. Here is the link: https://doodle.com/poll/dzd5aek28gftadg6?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link

I think we should plan one weekend, Saturday and Sunday.

Exactly, think we are all foiling on lakes similar to this one

A weekend will be nice. Could we camp there? “De bijland” recreational park does not seem to do short term camping??

Filled in.

It’s kind of a trip I might arrive on Friday evening already. Let’s see

Possible to spend the weekend in the camping/park I think:

I guess, the camping is on the other side of the lake. But at the harbor and speed trail there is a camper mobile location: https://www.jachthavendebijland.nl/campers/

too far for me. 1100 km is too much.

267km for me. About 3h ride. Will come but won’t stay the whole weekend

Well count me in! I am fairly knew to this forum, but I am happy to try arranging temporary permits or exceptions in Lathum.

Guys, any confirmed time slot already to book it ?

So far 28+29 of august looks most promising.

Any more enthusiasts? Doodle link is up a few posts.
