Hi.
I’m Lutz.
Do you like sailing?
Great.

YACHT DELIVERY
With more than 20,000 nautical miles in the wake, I feel privileged to offer a worldwide, first-class yacht delivery and charter skipper service for mono- and multihull sailing yachts of up to 100 ft.
My references range from yard-fresh, aluminium catamarans like the Vaan R4 to 100-years-old wooden gaff-rigged yawls such as the beautiful “Rose des Vents” (see video).
Having set sails from the Baltic to the Saragossa Sea and from Spitzbergen to Cabo Verde, I can ensure safe passage of your precious floating device anywhere in the world.
I hold the RYA Yachtmaster Ocean Certificate (commercially endorsed) with valid STCW Basic Safety and ENG1 Medical certificates as well as the Norwegian and German sailing and radio licenses.
→ Delivery of Classic Yacht “Rose des Vents” from Makkum, Netherlands to Palamos, Spain via English Channel and Gibraltar.

SKIPPER TRAINING
→ Arctic Skipper Training, Bavaria 50
You want to learn how to race a spinnaker in a fresh breeze, sail single-handedly across the open blue, prepare a family passage or perfect your docking skills?
Let’s schedule a 1-on-1 session to hone your sailing skills for calm, kind and confident skippering.
Ideally, we can combine the skipper training with a delivery sail to make the journey the most cost effective for you.

TESTIMONIALS
“Lutz! The last 7 days would not have been the same without you. Thank you for your patience and for your clear communication. And for all the laughs. And good music. And wonderful food. Thank you for everything! 🙏🏼”
Melanie M., Ski & Sail Expedition, Lyngen Alps (Norway), May 2024
“As I am writing this, I'm sitting in my hotel room, looking at the pictures and videos and I'm literally in tears. I am deeply grateful for the incredible week we were about to witness together.
Thanks for sun, for powder(alarm), for waves, for winds, for food, for mountains, for bonfire, for northern lights, for reindeers, for sauna, for øl in the jacuzzi, for ski crampons, for this beautiful country of Norway”.
A huge thanks to our skipper, crew and guide. Thank you so much for letting us take part in your passion, for sharing so much positive energy when we were feeling tired, cold or hungry. Thanks for letting us feel safe and in good hands. Thanks for all the hard work you put into this. By choosing and guiding these mind-blowing tours, by cooking and warmly welcoming us after each tour, by getting us to the next spot sometimes in cold, dark and rough conditions while we were sitting inside, warm, dry and comfortable. TUSSEN TAKK!”
Fabien, Ski & Sail Expedition, Lyngen Alps (Norway), April 2025

“I've already done a few tours but this will be one of those that is burned into my brain and always puts a smile on my face... thank you for a great time, lots of sweat and a lot of tears from laughing...”
Andreas V., Ski & Sail, Lyngen Alps (Norway, May 2025
(GER) “Das Einhand-Training mit Lutz war unglaublich hilfreich. Wir sind mit meinem 11 Meter Elektro-Langkieler von der Nordadria nach Montenegro gesegelt.
In den ersten zwei Tagen haben wir gemeinsam das Boot besser kennengelernt und es für das Einhand-Segeln optimiert. Dann bin ich nach und nach alle Manöver alleine gefahren unter Lutz’ klaren und ruhigen Tipps und Anweisungen.
Am letzten Tag war Lutz dann nur noch Smutje und ich habe uns Einhand nach Montenegro gesegelt.
Es war eine sehr steile Lernkurve für mich und das Training hat alle meine Erwartungen bei Weitem übertroffen. Vor allem aber hat der ganze Trip auch massiv Spass gemacht und war der Anfang einer neuen Freundschaft. Danke, Lutz!”
