Dropping a free flying sail can be difficult, especially when you sail shorthanded, but it is very important to plan the maneuver carefully in details.

Elvstrøm Sails A/S has acquired all the activities of its French sibling, Elvstrøm Sails Sarl, effective as of August 28, 2017. As part of the transaction Elvstrøm Sails A/S will also take over the majority of the employees at Elvstrøm Sails Sarl.

We´ve looked around and asked some of our own: What is sailing to you? What triggers you, what drives you? See for yourself and SHARE, if you share the passion.

Andreas Hanakamp from Elvstrøm Sails in Wiener Neustadt, Austria knows what he talking about.On his CV you will find  two Olympic Games, Volvo Ocean Race, Fastnet, Middle Sea Race, Transat Jacques Vabre plus numerous regattas. And then he conducts a lot of training sessions.

7 December 2016 at the age of 88, Paul Elvstrøm died. “We are saddened to hear that this great sailor and personality has passed away” Jesper Bank expresses with his deepest condolences to the Elvstrøm family.
