| I‘m Roger, 65 years old, married, 2 adult children. Being retired since 1y ear, I would like to spend more time sailing on the sea. I’m a lover of the ocean and all water sports. My first sailing steps began more than 40 years ago. Until now, I sailed at home, in Switzerland, on the Lake of Constance, and abroad many times in the Mediterranean See, but also in the Northern Sea and on the Atlantic and Pacific. I participated as crew in the ARC 2010 from the Galapagos to Vanuatu. At home, I‘m owner of a Dynamic 35, a wonderful and very performant scandinavian sailing yacht. | |
