#MysteryBoat2026
Time for another game. Guess the boat. No, it’s not a new deck for the J/99 Blur Edition
Smooth Operator | Antifouling 2026
Every spring you haul the boat and face the truth: whatever speed you had last season is living under a layer of slime and barnacles. So you grind it back and start over. No rocket science. Just willingness to spend time in the shed. Or to get help. New season we should be ok with […]
Gotland Runt 2026
This + most photos of us by Daniel Stenholm, KSSS. If you race offshore in the Baltic, Gotland Runt is a rite of passage. Like the Fastnet, the Bermuda Race or the Sydney–Hobart, it’s one of those races you have to do at some point, and everyone walks away with their own story. I did […]

The initiator of Profilen, creative impact photographer and sailor Lennart Hyse, initiated the idea, collected a crew, took the role as the project manager, documented the story and created a […]
