Sailing resources

Having the “Yacht” as a magazine, Germany has got a very prominent publishing medium. But since Germany only has a very short coast line you quickly recognize that there are mainly rich people sailing and we do not have too many people cultivating sailing as a part of the general culture.

So looking for real sailing culture you're better off to look at the Netherlands and our nordic neighbours.

Here I'm collecting resources about foreign sailing culture, provided in various languages.
