Newsletter June 2025

Hello from the beautiful North,

April and May were very busy months for us. There was a lot going on again. All winter storage boats had to be launched on time and made ready for sailing. Extensive, multi-day tests with British journalists took place. Deliveries and handovers of new and used yachts were scheduled. We had to prepare for participation in the Yacht Festival, transfer the Saare 47 and the 41.2 to Neustadt, and manage the stand there for three days during the show.

We had our hands full, but thanks to a lot of dedication and many overtime hours, we managed to complete everything on time—and even had fun at a beautiful fair.

Things are calming down a bit now. Ute and Thomas Nielsen are en route to Estonia with the Saare 47 to take part in the Saare gathering on Midsummer Night (June 23). After that, they’ll continue north, with their return planned for mid-September. The Saare 47 will then once again be available for viewing in Eckernförde.

Niels Nielsen is also in Estonia for a few days to hand over two new Saare 38.2 yachts.

Ronja Nielsen is holding down the fort in Eckernförde and continues to run the shop with her usual competence.

Midsummer in Estonia

Only a few more days to go until we meet up with other Saare crews in Koiguste on the island of Saaremaa. Participants are coming from Finland, Estonia, Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands.
We’re looking forward to a wonderful celebration under the Nordic sun and wish everyone safe travels!

Yachtfestival in Neustadt

Many thanks to everyone who visited us at the boat show.
The weather was mixed—beautiful on Friday, a bit changeable on Saturday, and mostly very rainy on Sunday.
But that didn’t stop the many visitors from coming to the show in Neustadt to see the wide range of impressive sailing yachts. Nowhere else in Northern Europe can you see so many sailing yachts at one show.

We were there with the Saare 41.2 and, making its world premiere, the Saare 47, and we were delighted by the many visitors—most of whom were very well-informed.

We had time to answer all questions in detail, show every aspect of the boats, and give each guest the opportunity to explore every corner.

This is what a test video looks like when the tester is absolutely thrilled

The testers from Great Britain are known to be very critical, and their tests are highly professional.
This video, almost feature-length, provides a very detailed report on all aspects of the Saare 41.2. The excellent construction, superb workmanship, and good equipment are also extensively highlighted.
It is clearly visible in the test video how much this yacht impressed the tester from Yachting Monthly.
