    It's a long time ago, that I've startet a thread ;)

    Some years ago in Oldenburg was an high tech sailing boat, what was designed for an wheelchair user.

    I've got an tip, that the boat was built by a yard that called Sarke in Bremen, Germany.

    I've asked Google, but got no answer, what I want. Maybe the name is changed?

    Does anyone know more?

    Hi,

    I will ask around with my contacts at a couple of places in the area and see if anyone knows anymore.

    Do you have any more info, year it was around or such like?

    @ K1W1: The boat cannot be famous. It's only 5 Meters long with blue hull and was called dschinn. I think it was build around in 1999.

    @ NYCAP123: Thanks for your help, but I don't looking for wheelchair user boats. More about the yard. Maybe they know where the boat is right now. Or they know a boat like this (Spediness, design, trailerble), what is for sale or for charter, because I plan to buy next year a fast and beautiful boat :)

    Hi,

    I found out quite a bit about the builder you seek info on.

    It is not a yard as such but a man called Saake who designed and built a few small sail boats in his backyard/garage.

    They evidently had great lines but that was the end of it, sailing performance and build quality was very poor.

    I have been given the Name and Phone No of a man who owns one of these boats who may know how to contact the builder.

    I will send this to you by e mail tomorrow when I get back to the office along with a couple of other bits and pieces of info I obtained from the two sources I told you earlier that I had contacted.
