Dutch sailor joins forum

Greetings sailors and others, my name is Jan, 44 years old, owner of a blue Bénéteau First 210 (1994) on a road trailer, that we (family of 4) cruise on in holidays. As racing crew I have sailed many miles in the IRC circuit and RORC as well as many classics regatta's in the Med. I have over the past years often used this forum for all kinds of information and have now decided to join and see what it brings and what I can bring to it. My latest cruising grounds were: French Mediterranean coast (Marseille to Toulon), Waddenzee, English south coast. My wish list: Galicia (Spain), Scilly Isles (SW England), Brittany (France), Atlantic coast of Norway, and much more. I am a nautical literature fan (Herman Melville rules!). Looking forward! Jan.

Welkom Jan,

Always nice to have someone with experience in EU sailing on the forum. If life allows I would love to cruise your area in the next year or so.
