Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Don’t live the same year for 20 more years and call it a life thereafter.

As a crew real sailing experience is not that important, a little adventurous mind and interest in new things is essential. The most important thing is to have a good creative and open minded atmosphere on board , if you think you could contribute to that you are welcome.
I sailed this boat also single handed a lot, crossing the Atlantic several times in both directions.
A little help is appreciated anyway. :-))
For further information and questions I am gladly at disposal.

About the boat, the plans, and current crew
