Never without! Life jacket. If a person should go overboard, the lifejacket and recovery options are of central importance. You will learn details about the construction, use and maintenance of your lifejacket, various recovery systems will be explained and practically demonstrated in the demonstration pool (Walden system) and in trips at sea (Catch and Lift system). For the excursions at sea, please register with us on the SY Carina in the registration list.
Burkhard Rosenberg is a trained navigator and has been an active regatta and cruising sailor for over 50 years. Since 2016, he has been a retired water police officer and co-developer of the skipper safety tips for water sportsmen and women of the German Association for Sea Rescue (FSR). For 15 years he has been available to interested sailors and boat owners as well as clubs and associations with his extensive experience.
The citizen science project Sailing for Oxygen is a joint (citizen) research project between Trans-Ocean e.V. and the GEOMAR Research Center in Kiel. Sailors use a probe to help collect important data on temperature, oxygen and salt content on their trips in the Baltic Sea. The role model is Boris Herrmann, who also collects data on his trips with the Malizia in order to better understand climate change. We show how it works and how sailors can actively participate.
Marcus Warnke is a dedicated cruising sailor and has been Chairman of Trans-Ocean e.V. (TO) since 2022. In his role, he drives the further development of the association. Trans-Ocean supports long-distance and blue-water sailors with (online) seminars, worldwide bases and a lively community and promotes young talent in offshore regatta sailing. It is the initiator of the cooperation with GEOMAR.
A tear in the spinnaker can happen quickly. But it can also be repaired quickly. Spinnaker repair cloth should always be on board. For tears in the genoa or mainsail there are also small aids to repair them on board and continue sailing.

The lecture will look back at the Baltic Sea flood of 2023, how it came about and what conditions prevailed. The aim is to discuss whether such weather conditions can now be expected more frequently. But above all, how to be better prepared next time to avoid damage. Furthermore, Dirk Hilcken will look at this and similar events from the perspective and analysis of a yacht insurance company and provide information.
Dirk Hilcken is Sales and Underwriting Coordinator at Pantaenius, Europe's leading provider of yacht insurance, and in over 20 years he has seen a lot of things that float and that owners would like to have insured. Finding the right assessment is only possible with personal experience on as many keels as possible. Having grown up on his parents' sailing boat, Dirk was long fascinated by the big-ship regatta sailing in a team. After an interlude that took him to the USA and the Caribbean with a big engine, the Hamburg native can now often be found on classic regattas with the Pantaenius safety RIB. And in an emergency, the wooden Opti built by his father is always ready to sail in the cellar.
Sebastian Wache, graduate and media meteorologist. As an experienced weather router for countless yachts worldwide, he has made a name for himself in the sailing scene. Especially in October 2023, when he was one of the few to warn of the impending Baltic Sea flood early on and thus helped to prevent further damage to boats. In addition to the weather on Schleswig-Holstein Magazin (NDR), he is also particularly active on social media, where he explains complex weather situations in a simple and understandable way.
Many a boat that has been abandoned could still have been afloat if systematic spill prevention had been carried out.
On the other hand, it is also a challenge to find the right moment to abandon the boat.
How to prepare and how to act practically is the subject of the demonstration and our MINI workshops, for which please join a registration list at our Meri Crash.
The Meri Crash is our spill response training boat with real leaks and real water.
Passionate sailor, water sports journalist, podcaster - Hinnerk Weiler loves the water and he loves talking about water sports. Our event stage host was himself on the move on the world's oceans by sailboat for several years and leads through the varied programme with exciting interviews and live shows. After his time on board, the former editor of a Hamburg sailing magazine was drawn to the Alps, and today he works freelance from Switzerland and publishes in various maritime media. So he has remained true to the sea and spends several months a year mainly in Nordic areas. With "Segelradio" he publishes a podcast about life on board.
