About us
We are a young crew that loves the old craft of sailmaking and practices it from the heart. In our workshop, Eva Gehrke and Markus Matz are on hand to answer your questions about sails, boat covers and tarpaulins. They are assisted by our apprentices Saviya Wheatley Negnal, Sophia Thelen and Tom Zensen. The crew is completed by the tarpaulin and boat cover seamstresses Renate Kotowski and Beate Wagner, our man-for-all-cases Thomas Schoch, the workshop service technician as well as our house technician Jörg Bierbrauer and our house and yard upholsterers Annegret Hall and Jörn Ulrich. Lisa Eckstein will help you with the cutting. For administrative matters and on the phone, Sarah Scheinert, Agnes Stepien, Claudia Kantz and of course, the owner Sebastian Hentschel are there for you. Pssst: The secret command, however, lies in the hands of junior boss Nils and the paws of ship's dog Merle and ship's cat Tinki - sail ahoy!
