WHAT
An introduction to sail trim in strong winds and when that is no longer enough: reefing the sails. Which one first, how exactly, on which course

Oliver Ochse has been working for over 25 years as a sailing instructor and sailing trainer on planing dinghies, small keelboats and regatta yachts.
I work with the following focal points:
- Sailing coach of the MasterClass on J 70 keelboats in Pollensa on Mallorca
- Trainer for gennaker and regatta training on the Archambault M 34 "Petit Chasseur"
- Skipper and crew training on owner yachts worldwide
- Skipper and trainer at regattas worldwide
- Personal trainer on owner yachts worldwide
- Moderation of water sports topics and specialist lectures at boat shows
- Trimming and technical seminars for sailing clubs
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 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.
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.
What is really important? What should I not do without? What do I have to pay attention to and how can I check my existing contract?
What do I do in the event of a claim? And how can I change the sum insured because my boat is worth more or less? And how is a value for the sum insured determined in the first place?
These and many other questions will be answered by Thalke Rothe, long-time employee of the Hamburg Yacht Insurance, on the Yacht Festival stage.
It goes without saying that one or two anecdotes will be revealed in the process!
An entertaining and informative excursion into the world of yacht insurance!
Andreas Medicus has been on board for more than 25 years and knows the yacht insurance industry very well. He enjoys sailing in the Kiel Fjord himself.

A lot can go wrong when looking for a boat if you buy a yacht without a plan. I'll show you how to avoid mistakes by taking a structured approach to your boat search and not jumping the gun out of infatuation. We'll discuss how to find a boat that suits you, your planned trips and your budget, and how to avoid making mistakes in the purchase process during price negotiations, the technical assessment of the yacht and the handover.
Marie Schneider accompanies and advises boat seekers throughout Europe. After a sabbatical at sea, the doctor of economics has devoted herself entirely to her passion, boats. Her YouTube channel "MARIETIM" is the largest German-language technical sailing channel. She runs theoretical and practical seminars, always with the desire to get more women interested in sailing and technical boating know-how.
