In the seventh instalment of YACHT - the sailing podcast podcast host Timm Kruse takes you to the Caribbean, to Martinique to be precise. There he met Melwin Fink, 21, and Lennart Burke, 25, at the "Sign for Com" in front of the Caribbean 600 and spoke to them about their careers, goals and values

Timm Kruse talks to them about the life they lead to realise their dream of sailing and how the understanding and support of family and partners play a key role. They give you insights into how they build and run their business and how they keep the boat on course, not just physically, but also figuratively.

The episode also offers you a preview of the Caribbean 600 and shows the challenges and opportunities the two are confronted with at sea. In such events, the two prove their team spirit and have to make decisions quickly. In the podcast, Melwin Fink and Lennart Burke reveal how they manage this.

They also discuss the strategic aspects of offshore sailing and how young sailors can be encouraged and supported. The 21 and 25-year-old are committed to this with their next campaign with Jonas Kroner themselves. In the seventh episode of the podcast "Sailing to success - with Melwin Fink and Lennart Burke on their 'Sign for Com'", you can find out what other goals the up-and-coming sailors have.

These topics await you:

  • Restrictions in private life in favour of sailing
  • Difficult conditions on the high seas, such as during the Transat Jacques Vabre
  • Joint decision-making and resolution of differences of opinion
