CARAVAN SALON gets its own mascot and fan shop

German company Sealander has introduced a hybrid of a towable camper and a motorboat that can be used on land and water. The 4.69 m long and 1.66 m wide trailer has a gross weight of 750 kg, allowing it to be towed by small cars with a standard driving license. The price starts at 39,750 euros excluding the engine and options. The trailer is certified as a category D boat under the CE standard and is intended for enclosed and sheltered waters with wind up to Beaufort force 4 and wave height up to 0.3 m. Standard equipment includes panoramic windows, a folding roof, a table and two benches that convert into a 205x151 cm bed; capacity is up to six people.

A motorhome suddenly rolled and got stuck at the edge of the quay at Schnackenburg harbor. The incident ended without serious consequences.

The municipal motorhome parking site in Streitberg is part of the new Franconian Switzerland parking network. The project aims to strengthen regional cooperation and enhance the region's appeal to motorhome tourists.

The article presents eight categories of accessories for organizing storage in the rear of campers based on the Fiat Ducato, Citroën Jumper, and Peugeot Boxer. These include rear door bags, nets, chair holders, systems for the upper door area, Euro boxes with side opening, wall bags for ramps, cable bags, and adhesive screw mounts. Most products are installed without tools and leave no traces, and are available from specialized retailers such as Fritz Berger and Camping Wagner.

A severe thunderstorm in the night from Wednesday to Thursday caused numerous fire brigade operations in the Vogelsberg district. In Schlitz, a tree fell on a motorhome; the fire brigade rescued the affected family and accommodated them in a hotel. A barn with a photovoltaic system collapsed in Ützhausen, and a fire watch was set up. In Lauterbach and the surrounding area, there were 19 operations, several roofs were damaged, and roads were blocked by fallen trees.

The article lists ten arguments in favor of caravan and motorhome holidays, emphasizing flexibility, outdoor living, family orientation, and cost-effectiveness. The authors note that camping allows spontaneous travel, especially in the off-season, and promotes a slower pace of life. It is also mentioned that most campsites are family-oriented, and the camping community is ready to help in difficult situations. The material states that with a smart approach, such a holiday can be cheaper than staying in a hotel.
