What a beautiful setting to do some canoe sailing. And this fellow does it in elegant simplicity.
Simple boat.
Simple rig.
Island hopping.
Camp cruising most days. But also stayed in a B & B at least one night during one of these trips.
This is the stuff of a middle class sailor’s dreams (psssst, that would be some of us :-)
According to YT video info, the boat is an ARTEMIS Sailing Canoe: https://www.bootsbaugarage.ch/kit.htm
And the sail rig comes from here: https://reallysimplesails.com/three-sets-of-really-simple-sails-at-lauwersmeer-raid-netherlands/

Totally agree with this….. and yet, looks like a lot of fun !
Hello, I just found out that this guy is the organizer of the “RAID EXTREME”.
This is a sailing event held in “lauwersoog” the netherlands, every year first week of september.
It’s al about small sailing vessels and/or human powered vessels.
Highly recommended …. vids about this can be found at the earlier mentioned site: https://www.youtube.com/user/winnips/videos
