Sailing season 2024
Days are still short but the new season started in January for me.
I am hoping for some nice days on the water in late winter and spring.
So this might be the time for some sailing and getting to know people for some possible future trips.
For now it will be mostly recreational sailing around holland on Isselmeer and North Sea.
In June I will probably take a longer trip to Denmark or Sweden.
Looking for competent crew to join me.
Boat is a ELAN 310 with 2 gennakers / 3 jibs and all necessary safety equipment (like EPIRB, liferaft) for going offshore.
The boat likes to heel and needs some fitness and mobility.
It's located at Medemblik / Ijsselmeer / North Holland
Fuel, food and marina costs will be shared equally.
Crew has to pay their own travel expense to Medemblik.
This is most definitely much more an active weekend sailing trip/training then a drinking holiday :-) (just writing this because for some sailors this seems to be the most important part of the trip)
About me:
4 years ago I sailed my aquired used boat from South Brittany to North Holland.
Since then I did quite a bit of sailing (10.000 miles since then ) around Holland, North Sea Channel (England and France), Sweden, Denmark and Germany.
I work as a freelancer and like (apart from sailing) music, playing guitar /singin and fresh and healthy food
Weekend sail from Medemblik to Urk and back
I spend two days sailing with Chris. On the first we sailed from Medemblik to Urk and the second day we sailed back. This was my first crewbay experience and a great one. Chris has a sporty boat with many rigging options. So many things to learn. And Chris is very helpful to teach you things. I would be happy join for another trip and definitely recommend Chris to others.
