If you use Dinghy Sail Racing, I promise you that you will get, in my opinion, the best dinghies on the market and a high level of service. I am passionate about sailing and want to facilitate all sailors who want quality products at a good price. My goal is for as many people as possible to have the opportunity to sail the best dinghies with the best equipment at a reasonable price.

My objective is for the optimist class to attract more young sailors, to benefit everyone if we manage to increase the participation of youthful sailors. I am optimistic about accomplishing this goal and believe that enhanced competition will lead to the emergence of more skilled sailors not only in Sweden but also across Europe. While this is undoubtedly an ambitious objective, we must take the first step, and the optimist class provides the perfect foundation for our endeavors to flourish. Let us work together towards this common goal for the betterment of sailing and the sailing community.
