Sailing Trips

Area reports, impressions and experiences. Some trips simply remain in your memory, but others need to be told. Here you will find my highlights from recent years.

A short-term assignment in the Caribbean. It’s a challenge you simply have to take on. Breathtaking scenery, sandy beaches in Antigua and Barbuda – the likes of which I’d never seen before

After my first trip, which started in Martinique and was a bit of a let-down, I wanted to explore the area again. Finding anchorages is much easier when you know the area well and have made plenty of friendly acquaintances

I had always avoided Greece until now. The way of anchoring had given me legitimate cause for concern, as I discovered. However, the impressions I gained more than made up for this minor drawback

Sailing off Africa in the middle of the Atlantic. Long distances, lonely sailing grounds and many new impressions. On the road in the place that calls itself the ‘birthplace of the most destructive hurricanes’.

A journey for two to the end of the Baltic Sea. Solitude, cold, nights spent sailing and a sun that refuses to set.

The best comes last. After a fascinating year, the icing on the cake is yet to come, even if the rainy season is not over yet.

Sailing in Istria. One of the most beautiful starting points is undoubtedly the small town of Pula, which is well worth a visit. We set off for Kvarner Bay, notorious for its bora wind. We got to know it from its gentler side.

Good things come to those who wait... One of the most impressive areas, plus my first trip on a catamaran: this almost calls for a travel report!

The plan was to get a breath of Atlantic air. We hadn't expected it to be so rough between the islands. But that didn't spoil the fun in the slightest.

Here I describe the course of an SKS training cruise in the Palma de Mallorca area.

Croatia, with its crystal-clear waters and many beautiful islands, is well worth a visit, even if prices have risen outrageously. Here is the report from Dalmatia.

A trip to the Aeolian Islands, also known as the Lipari Islands, is like stepping back in time. I wouldn't have been surprised if prehistoric dinosaurs had been watching us from the islands.

For 20 years, I have dreamed of attending an ice hockey world championship by boat. Now it has finally come true! We were blown away by Estonian culture and hospitality! And Finland was just as impressive.

What was planned as a leisurely cruise along Sweden's south coast turned into a long haul due to a commitment in Berlin. But the wind and weather were kind to us!

Sailing the hard way. Sometimes it's impossible to put what you've experienced into words. That's why I'll let the video speak for itself.
