A bit of a tease for you. Extra points if you can name the sailing club.
I like to take pictures of sailing, but I'd rather be sailing!

Yep I would say that is the Light Skiff so so I guess that photo is taken somewhere in Germany. Probably somewhere near Keil.
Just had another look at the fisrst picture. I would say the short grey haired gentleman wearing a yellow jacket standing at the bow is not other than the designer - Mr Joachim Harpprecht.

Nice looking boat, but why such a hideous sail?

You guys are awesome! It is Joachim Harpprecht (very nice chap) and his latest design - a junior version of the Musto skiff.

This was at the Blankeneser Segel-Club e.V. - BSC - Hamburg for "Die Letzten Helden" "the last hero" one of the bigger last races of the season in northern Germany. I highly recommend doing this race, it is the only one I know where they have a RIB with a wineglass flag where you get free piping hot glühwein between races.
