Hello
I'm a 67 Years old Swiss Sailor from Zurich. I saild since I was 5 Years old.
I speak German and French as my mother tongue, English of curse and learning Spanish. Did a lot of racing on Dinghis and Yachts (Fireball, 470, Tornado, 6m-R Yachts and Starboat ) on international competition level. I am singel and my 2 adult children join me times a time on the boat for Kiting and sailing.
I crossed 4 times ( once singelhanded) the Atlantic with my boat, a beautiful, very save and well maintained and equipped with brand new systems; 53 Ketch Amel Super Maramu
