Klara is a pleasure to share sea time with. She is keen to be part of the team and is a natural on the open seas, showing initiative and finding opportunities to be a valuable asset of the boats crew. Excellent navigating skills, general boat handling, sail trimming and awareness of what's needed to keep everyone safe and in the flow. I hope to sail with Klara again. Thanks for the great shared experience Klara! Let's sail again sometime...
