SAILING

SAILING- an overview

Sailing offers a variety of competitions. There is fleet racing, there is match racing or offshore sailing. 
Ocean sailing is Sanni `s favorite discipline because it´s raw, it´s adventurous and technical. 
Furthermore it included a lot of risk management. Because the sailor has to find her fastest way with taking nature, her equipment and herself into account. 

BOAT- Class 40

The Class 40 is a very important step in a sailors career. 

It´s the entry to ultimate ocean racing because  this class is being used in many transatlantic races and even in competitions around the globe.
The Class 40 is 12 m long and  4,5 m wide. 
It´s 24h record stands at 433,53 miles, which is a stunning speed of 33 km/h in average! 

WHY - the purpose

Sanni especially loves how she can immerse herself into another world while sailing. Out on the ocean everything that seemed so important ashore, now feels like miles away. 
Out there, all that matters is you, your boat and the weather. 
People are often so focused on the physical aspects of sailing that we forget how much we stand to gain from the sport – both socially and emotionally.


Led by a woman, driven by purpose and powered by the planet.
