Competing on the national level in Optimists and OK. Sailing with the Swedish navy scooner "Falken" to the UK and France. Own yacht since 1995. Experience from sailing around the Baltic, the Mediteranean, Thailand and Belize. Now retiring in 2023 and I would like to spend a lot of time sailing. | |
