What a superb show of excellent models. Back in the 1980's I was a representative of the UK at the Naviga championships at Rouen in France, East Berlin in Germany, and a European event in Holland. My models had some success. Then my life took an un-wanted change. Although I kept up ship model making, I dropped out of international competitions. But it would be interesting to know where the 2018 Naviga C class will be held. Would really like to know. Please can you to tell me. With thanks. Mike.

I heard that the Czech Republic and Romania are arguing for the right to host the championship in 2018
Bulgaria wants to host NAVIGA European Cup in 2017
