Sailing

In the summer I love to go sailing when I am off the work. When I was five years old my parents bought a sailing boat and since then I have been possessed with it. At the moment I am doing a lot of racing. Together with five other sailors I owe an 11:Metre One Design. That is a fast and funny sailboat of 34 feet. Have a look at the links below!
