Commissioning, coaching and delivery of the world's finest sailing vessels.
Claudia Dengler & Jan CluistraJan Cluistra I was born in Holland and educated in South Africa. I fell in love with the sea fishing off my Dad's boat. I worked in my Dad's construction business and studied engineering in college. I've built 2 boats and one marina. I enjoy all aspects of sailing: passage planning and passage-making, studying weather, commissioning boats, testing boats and helping new owners become confident and capable masters of their boats.

Claudia Dengler My parents and grandparents were avid sailors in Lübeck, Germany. I bought my first boat right after college, a new Catalina 27 and did a lot of single-handed sailing off the coast of southern New England. After relocating to Minnesota, I became a Lake Superior cruiser on my Island Packet 40 and later stepped up to a Hallberg-Rassy 53. I love everything about sailing: being out in nature, developing & using technical skills and helping people learn to sail and have fun on boats. I retired from a career as an executive in 2007.

We have been sailing together since the fall of 2013 and started our joint venture in the spring of 2015.
