About the Author
A few years ago he made his childhood dreams come true. After he single-handedly built his own wooden house somewhere in beautiful Slovenian Alps, he started building his own boat. He named it catamaran ARIKI, which in Polynesian means a chieftain. Himself and his crew get enough opportunity to enjoy themselves. He loves the calmness at the sea.
Wonderful work on the boat building and videos of the sailing. Happy to see more people to join the DIY boat. Life is short, make the best of it without hurting others plus it's also an contribution to human experiences.:) You are one of the most "richest" people on earth---owner of the sea.

Incredible, astonishing, thanks for sharing your video and experience to others. I have never sailed before but now I have seen thousands of sailing videos and I want to live the experience. I will find the way to try to do, what you have done.
