Wish I could have stayed longer

Had the pleasure to be on Klaus for 3 weeks, sailing from Tahiti to the Cook Islands. Klaus is fairly spacious for a monohull and it felt like living in someones well equipped home. Life is still more frugal than at home and you are close together. It's life at sea after all and if you're ready to induldge, you'll appreciate it. I also appreciated Tom's experience and calmness, always feeling safe. He takes time to explain things and puts trust in you, and in return expects that people remember stuff and take care of the boat. We visited beautiful french polynesian islands and had one longer passage of 3 days. We were 2 crew, would take watches when sailing, help with mooring/anchoring and share the daily tasks. When not sailing we went snorkelling, did little trips to land but also just enjoyed our time on board?. I found there was a good mix of doing stuff together but also doing "your own thing". We shared laughs and good conversations, while it not being a party boat. For me it was the most relaxing holiday in a long time but still felt like a big adventure - a perfect mix. Thanks Tom & Klaus and hopefully see you soon!

If you have a chance to sail with these guys DO IT!

Mari and I spent two amazing weeks onboard this boat with Janne and Tom, and we can’t recommend them and their boat highly enough. It was a couple of truly fantastic weeks. What can you expect? Great food, meaningful conversations, plenty of laughs, and Tom’s impressive sailing expertise along with his many other technical skills. We learned so much about sailing, and Tom’s patience as a teacher made it all the more enjoyable. The pictures in my mind don’t even do the boat justice. Klaus is beautiful—clean, spacious, and incredibly cozy. Tom and Janne really take care of their crews needs, small or big. If we ever get the chance to sail with Janne and Tom again, we’ll jump at it without hesitation! They made the whole experience unforgettable.

Learned a lot and had a great time!

I can’t recommend sailing with Tom and Jane enough! Tom was very knowledgeable and really helped me learn the basics of sailing. In addition, Jane was a great cook and the conversations at dinner were wonderful! Thank you to you both :)
