The very beginning
What would we be without our stories behind?
Anfang einer Geschichte
‚Und Jetzt?‘, wollen die Leute von uns wissen, wenn wir ihnen begegnen. Was tut ihr jetzt? Sie scheinen davon auszugehen, dass einen das Ende der Erwerbsarbeit in ein Chaos...
About us
It's me, Carola
I am a child of the sun. I need the warmth and the appeal of the new, the unknown. Fifteen years ago, Klaus and I got married. Together we created subTilia, our home. We don't want to give that up. But now we dare again. On a path without a destination, on a journey without a planned end. Maybe it's called life. And when Klaus says the sea is calling, it might have been me who whispered it to him. ;-)
It's me, Klaus
Früher bin ich Flugzeuge geflogen. Meist fühlte ich mich über den Wolken, aber manchmal auch darunter. Die Langstrecke war mein Revier. Jetzt habe ich genug vom Himmel. Das Meer ruft. Carola und ich haben uns das Segeln gemeinsam erarbeitet. Über 6000 Seemeilen sind inzwischen zusammengekommen, mal zu zweit, mal mit den Kindern, mal mit Freunden. Und jetzt gehen wir auf eine ‚Große Fahrt‘.
Life exists through its stories. I write them down for some years now. And sometimes I tell them, too. This part of me you will find on
Our track, our position
On this chart you can follow our route or can find the actual position of the Dream Chaser. We are also equipped with AIS, so you can find us on Vessel Finder or Marina Traffic as well.
What this is all about
We want to get out, want to trade the solid ground under our feet for the vastness of the sea. Wanting to lose ourselves in the unknown and find ourselves again. The spirit of the world, it should lift and widen - ok, that sounds dusty like Hermann Hesse. But - isn't he right?
And we don't want to do this alone. We want to tell you, want to report, maybe even want to get you excited about it, so that you think: I want to be there, want to take part!
Because in each of us there is a little adventure, a bit of Odysseus, a little Penelope.
We'll take you with us!
The DREAM CHASER
1. A FP Lucia 40
Our catamaran was launched in 2017. She is 12m of length and measures a beam of 6,6m, which exceeds a monohull of that size by fifty percent. A massive gain of living comfort.
2. Sailing
Other than monohulls, catamarans don't heel. Nevertheless they glide as smoothly through the water as their single hulled sisters, and sailing is pretty much the same as on them.
3. Safety
Catamarans operate with two engines. A massive advantage in terms of safety as well as in terms of maneuverability. For landing on a sandy beach we use our dinghy.
4. Guests on board
On the port side, the DREAM CHASER has two cabins, a toilet and a separate shower compartment. Each cabin offers a spacious double bed and a closet. The starboard hull remaines reserved for the owners. DREAM CHASER On the port side, the DREAM CHASER has two cabins, a toilet and a separate shower compartment.

Sailing together
An exciting passage, exploring an island, relaxing in a bay, getting to know magical places. Here you will find our plans for the near future.
Come an visit us!
Palermo
Eine Umrundung der größten Mittelmeerinsel. Das könnten wir uns gut vorstellen. Im Süden Syracuse, Ragusa und Agrigent, im Westen die Ägädischen Inseln und im Norden Palermo. 500sm sind das, dafür kann man leicht vier bis sechs Wochen einplanen.
Lipari Islands
Auf unserer Fahrt rund Sizilien werden wir an den Vulkaninseln vorbeikommen. Hier spielt meine Geschichte des jungen Paares auf Liebesflucht, Fuitina. Vielleicht besuchen wir sie erneut.
Gallipoli
Die letzte italienischen Hafenstadt, bevor wir nach Korfu übersetzen. Von Catania aus 200sm, also drei bis vier Tagesreisen. Von hier aus sind es dann nur noch 80sm nach Korfu.
