Congratulations to Gong Qunxing from China and his success with the K2 IOM yacht! So, there it is, another successful RC sailor who made us proud!

Only amazing news keeps coming to us with our K2 fleet all over the world!
The great overall picture of brilliant results by many different IOM sailors worldwide continues assembling piece by piece (just like we love to do with our RC sailboats inside our delightful factory in Croatia ) – Paul Jones has done it with his Kantun 2 ‘Sinbad’, Australian IOM Championship is finished and we would like to share an article with some more information about it, check it here.

Keep calm and ‘K’arry on…

The amazing European Championship has ended! 1st and 2nd place went to Zvonko and Ante who sailed masterfully on our K2 IOM sailboats! As any sailors already know very well IOM European Championship 2018. tested skills and performance for all competitors, this was truly an experience which will be remembered for a long time…

In June we had great success with another K2 powered by dear Pierluigi Puthod from Italy, well done! So, an amazing ‘ITA 22’ achieved a great score and won first place with our pastel blue K2 IOM sailboat on Regata Nazionale Modelvela – ENDINE 2018! Our dear friends just love to make us proud to be a part of their life and the success stories they share with whole wonderful IOM community globally.

So, what do you guys think about building a new K2 with legendary Croatian “šahovnica” (engl. chessboard)?

It will boost up performances like nothing before, guaranteed! ;)

We went to the CCOR IOM event in China, Quingdao! It was really wonderful, full of enthusiastic people who cherish the IOM class. China was a great host and their organizers put lots of effort into welcoming guests to their “sailing home”.

Amazing performance with our K2 again, this time by Levend Gürkan from Turkey in the 2018 Istanbul RC Cup!!! CONGRATULATIONS!
”I am really happy with the boat. It performs well on most conditions, light with or strong wind and especially on the choppy water…” – Leved Gürkan
Sailboat RC is feeling proud (K2) too! :) Well done master Torsten Fildebrandt, congratulations once more!
K2 is pushing only great news recently in IOM…check here for some pictures from Germany IOM Nats.

Well done Levend, you make the whole K2 family proud, amazing!

We just love to volunteer and share an amazing RC sailing experience with kids. They are so involved in their work when they are interested in something they do, and what better way to learn about physics and electronics than RC sailboats? ;)

Slobodna Dalmacija (Croatian newspapers released article about Sailboat RC):
Splitski “Sailboat RC” je u samom svjetskom vrhu dizajna i proizvodnje radio-upravljanih jedrilica, a unatoč jakoj svjetskoj konkurenciji bez premca je kad je riječ o izradi jedra!

Ova tvrtka, koju su početkom 2016. osnovali Zvonko Jelačić i Josip Marasović, jedina u svijetu pomoću 3D modeliranja izrađuje jedro iz jednog komada, dok svi njezini konkurenti to čine rezanjem materijala na tri dijela i nakon toga ponovnim spajanjem. Liste narudžbi za njihove modele radio-upravljanih jedrilica sve su duže, kao i popis osvojenih prvih mjesta na svjetskim, europskim i nacionalnim regatama.

Hvala Slobodnoj, više pročitajte ovdje.
