Re: International Amphib 2023 Germany.
Here some pictures of a very good Amphib Germany.
Arrival was on saturday the 5th, and it was nice to see all our national and international friends again.
Jürgen & Irmgard Neuenhausen, famely and friends / helpers did a great job.
77 amphibs were there and we had a welcome diner at the evening.
Very well organised meal in a big tent with bar, plenty of food
Sunday , monday, tuesday, we did well organised trips on land and water with pause breaks for lunch or visit small nice vilages.
One day my English GPA friend had a problem with his GPA, so I towded him to the ramp and brought him a shore.
After searching to the problem, no vapor lock, no fuel pump, no fuel filter it finaly apear to be the coil. (he had three )
A lot of vehicles were present, old and new modern ones:
Ford GPA 10, and Russian Gaz 5.
DUKW 5 and Amphicar 30 !
Dutton 6 and one Jet ranger,
4 Amphi Ranger and 5 Aquada,
5 Schwimm wagen and one self made Polish Amphib (no pic)and a Amphi Buggy
And one "Europa Jeep" only 8 were build.
Wednesday was a day off, and the Dutch organised a football competition.
At the evening a contest of the smartest team.
And later that afternoon as skill game for all participants older than 60, "Zonnebloem groep".
Thursday and friday also some nice tours and in the evening a brass band came to our party tent.
And we had a evening with wine tasting of the speciality of Mossel wine.
Friday also the traditional group picture;
The plan were for next year Norway, but unfortunately the Norway group was not able to organise for 2024.
So the Dutch Roy Bolks, (who also organised Italy 2022) anounced that Amphib 2024 will be held in the Netherlands
We all thanked the German group for organising this year and handed some presents.
All & all we look back to a great succesfull Amphib 2023.
Looking forward to the next!
(BTW my GPA, no problem at all )
