Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hello my name is Sven, my friend chris and me are looking foward to absolve our RYA Yachtmaster Coastal, due to that we want to get more experienced in sailing. Both of us have a German Boatlicence and 500 nm experience. I am a optimistic, clever and open minded companion who wants to learn from each other.
I have a problemsolving attitude and react calm in stressfull situations.
I am an educated industrial mechanic with 3 years experience as a Europe-wide acting service engineer.
Besides sailing I really enjoy freediving, fishing, cooking and most of the boardsports.
I would like to meet you!
