This wasn’t my first trip on a traditional sailing ship. However, this journey will always stay in my memory. Not only the crew, but also the catering deserves a solid A+. It’s certainly not something to be taken for granted how lovingly everything was prepared by our cook, Claudia. At this point, a big compliment also goes out to the other fellow travelers—for the understanding and consideration shown to and with one another. For me, it’s clear: if my health allows it, I will join the Elegant again on the transfer voyage from the Baltic Sea back to Harlingen.Until then—may you always have a hand’s breadth of water under the keel!Best regards,Eckhard
