The standard najad is made a little faster
Reiner Kürten from Najad Germany in Großenbrode was able to land a large fish at boot in Düsseldorf: “The ink is dry. Hans-Otto Schümann has signed ".
The (racing) sailing legend from Hamburg, who with rubies No. 1 to 16 lifted sailing in Germany to the podium like no other, puts an end to Grand Prix regattas. But: Hans-Otto Schümann, very old fox, naturally brings his own ideas to the table. The standard aluminum rig disappears and a carbon fiber mast will adorn the 400. Because the top weight is then reduced, the sail areas are also increased a little. It will be interesting to see if and when Schümann will stop by the registration office for the first time. Incidentally, he remains with his house designer. Because like Schümann's rubies, the 400 is a design by Judel / Vrolijk & Co. Perhaps the most important special request from the prominent Najad customer concerns the delivery date. The ship in Henan / Sweden should be ready by July 15, 2002 - the shipyard now has to work extra shifts to avoid annoying “normal” customers.
