Appie,

Thanks!

For the record the idea of shipping Double Trouble to Europe is, at the moment, only an idea that I (with everybody's help) am
brainstorming.

The issues to be solved are:

1) Registration - MUST be done in such a way so that is 100% legal and I can obtain insurance that will cover me 100% and places NO
ONE other than myself at risk if I get into an accident

2) Storage - would like Double Trouble to be stored under cover and in a place far enough south so that it is not exposed to hard
freezes

3) Driving license - hopefully an Australian light truck license when combined with an International Driving License will allow me
to drive Double Trouble anywhere in Europe legally

If I can solve the issues above I will have my mate build me an isolation transformer that will handle up to a 15 amp input at 230
vac.

Thanks for the link to the website; my German is good enough to read it.

Double Trouble is more original than Olga.

Regards,
Rob M.

Yes that is a problem. Where I am now there is 16A at 230V. Most places there will only be 6A or maybe 10A. You cannot run the
generator on the campsite.
Most places you pay per day, that is good if you have enough A to run the ac.
i get along. quite well with 3 magic fans

There is a german forum that deals with usa rv's in europe. In german only. http://motorhome-europe.de/forum/

Just one other thing. Iff you want to register the coach in europa it is good if the coach is as original as possible, as that is a
requirement for oldtimer registration
