I am a keen sailor. I sail about 1000 - 2500 NM per year; the map shows some of my voyages in recent years. I have sailed boats of all sizes: dinghies; a 20 ft keel boat; a 27 ft Granada; 32, 33 and 40 ft Linjetts; a Jeanneau 49; an X-562; and since 2020 I sail a Farr Nauta 65 called South Wind. The YouTube clip shows me sailing a Seaon 96 trimaran in the Baltic (20 knots in 25 knots of wind!!!) a long time ago.
