Destination Mallorca, but not Ballermann 6

Wednesday morning Markus left for the airport to fly to Palma de Mallorca for a few days sailing on the Astra de l’Est, a Swan 92 yacht with his former boss and a few of his former colleagues. It has in the meantime become a tradition that the group is sailing for one weekend together and after having been to a Sweden last year where the air and water was quite chilly, this year it was time for some summer-sailing around the Balearic Islands.

Great wind of up to 20 knots, sailing with up to 13 knots and warm water paired with the great pleasure of jumping into the water in the morning before breakfast are fantastic already, but when on Thursday afternoon the boat was joined by a group of three dolphins swimming along and playing with the racing yacht everyone on board was super excited. Even the experienced people who are spending weeks or months on the water claimed to never having seen such large dolphins. Lets see what the next days will bring.

Jakob, Kerstin & Markus
