Rated 5/5 by 3 students
Even after nearly four decades on the water, I am always keen to pick up a new trick - and happy to pass my knowledge on to anyone who wants to learn. I love to teach sailors of all ages to sail fast and efficiently, but also to do this responsibly and safely. Born in Germany, I learned sailing at the tender age of 13 on Dutch rivers. Later based in Berlin, I quickly ran out of water on the surrounding lakes, and started exploring the Baltic, casting off to Denmark, Finland and Russia. On my moving to New York in 2006 as photographer and author, I crewed and skippered regularly in races off City Island and in Rockport, MA. I love cruising the Atlantic, be it along the Eastern seaboard from Maine down to the Carolinas, or offshore over to Bermuda or the Bahamas. A Transatlantic is in planning. In my spare time I skipper a 30'' sloop on the Western Long Island Sound, and I sailed pretty much every drop of local water from Sheepshead Bay to Block Island.
