Dragonfly 40 'Rastaban'

 

Since 2020 Werner is the skipper of my Dragonfly 40 'Rastaban'(dragonfly40.de). I can highly recommend his knowledge in all Dragonfly affairs. You will not find a better Dragonfly expert outside the yard. I am looking forward to the next races with him.

Rigging a new Df 28 Performance + sail training 

 

Even as an RYA YM Instructor with over 70'000 miles and 50 years of sailing experience, I could still learn a lot about trimaran sailing from Werner. His training has saved our skin time and again, and prevented costly mistakes

Richard & Rosie   -   New Zealand

 

Training on their Df 35 Ultimate

 

......We both appreciated your excellent knowledge of these boats and your gentle and thorough approach to sharing this knowledge with us.  You gave Richard some excellent tips and refreshed some of his techniques, all of which will help make sailing our boat easier and all the more enjoyable.  Rosie gained a huge amount from your training, a much better overall understanding of the science of sailing, the 'why and how' things work and the relationship of the sails to the wind and sea conditions.  As Richard said, Rosie would never have ventured out onto the outer hull in similar conditions had you not encouraged her to try it out.  She is a lot more confident and will build on that confidence and what she has learned in the weeks to come.

 

*Note

Richard is a very experienced sailor who previously sailed around the world with his 62' Monohull before he bought DF 35 'Bronzewing'

... this wild tramontana ride was the most spectacular experience I ever had on my Dragonfly

Delivery to Nieuport/ Belgium incl.training

 

… Sailing a Dragonfly is really different to the boats I have sailed before. It was good to have an experienced Dragonfly Skipper on board for the difficult passage to Belgium.

Dan   -   Portugal  

 

Training on his new DF 35 UL in Lisbon

 

.. the yard should offer this training as a standard. I had a Lagoon 410 Catamaran before. My new Dragonfly is much more technical and sensitive.  It's like changing from a truck to a sports car.

 …  I learnt a lot about the boat on the trip. After the training it was no problem for me to sail it to the Mediterranean. In my opinion it’s stupid to buy such a valuable boat without a proper training.

Trainings on their Df 920 EX

 

… for us it was the easiest and most effective way to learn everything about ‘Time Out’. The name of our boat is the way we will use it - relaxed and safe.

…. Now we understand the appeal of Dragonfly sailing. This boat is not only a fast sailboat, it is also a perfect 'chill area'.

After a stormy delivery from Hamburg to the yard in November 2006

 

…. thank you for helping me to sail the boat back to the yard. I learnt a lot on the trip. Had I had done the training in the beginning maybe it would not have been necessary to bring the boat back to the yard for repairs.
