How does he keep that rope rubbing strake so clean, the boat is gorgeous.

I think Danish might be more useful - but I'm not a linguist.

It looks like it's detachable and can be removed and put away after the days sailing and photo opportunity 😁

What a fabulous boat!

(I mean the Spitzgatter, not the inferior LM-alike in the background!)

Beautiful lines and finishes, and I really like the clever details like the drawers, etc. in the cockpit and sliding shutters for the portlights.

I've mixed feelings about the imitation 'butterfly' hatch in the coachroof - sure, it is waterproof (as butterfly hatches rarely, if ever, are) but it seems like cheating, and you miss out on the superior ventilation options of the butterfly type. Do you think I should let that be a deal-breaker for me? 😁

I assume that the whole boat is kept in a sealed glass case between outings in the season, and preserved in aspic each winter. ;)

Amusing that when the owner starts talking English, the sound is quickly over-dubbed with the presenter speaking Danish! :D
