"Jollenflottille 2014" dinghy messabout (English invitation)

The "Jollenflottille" dinghy meeting - the fifth of its kind - will be held in Schwerin this year between 28 May (arrival date) and the first of June (departure day).
This is an informal event at which small-boat sailors can sail together, swap stories and exchange experiences. Schwerin is is the capital and second-largest city of the northern German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. As such, it is within a day's travel for interested sailors in most of northern/central Europe and southern Scandinavia.
Participants will have to book their own accommodations but I can help if you need assistance.
The boats will be kept at the local yacht club: Schweriner Segler-Verein von 1894 e.V. , which also has a limited number of spaces for camper-vans and tents. Contact the harbourmaster (++49 385 - 56 5079 or mobile ++49 152 - 553 44 705) in good time if you would like to book one of these. Some of our participants who have mini-cruisers or larger dinghies will be sleeping aboard.
Of course it is totally up to you if you wish to come earlier and/or stay longer. Our "core" sailing days are Thursday, Friday and Saturday. You participate at your own responsibility and risk, as this is a completely informal meeting.
For all who understand a bit of German or are prepared to tackle one of the free WWW translation services, there is a thread about the meeting on the Segeln Forum with a list of known participants. Do not hesitate to post comments in English there as most members do have a certain command of English.
My personal accounts (two in German and one in English) of three previous events are linked on the Documents page of our forum.
A few corresponding videos are to be found on the JollenFlottille channel on Youtube.
