About me

Another life-dumping-log of a geek, which prefers Linux/UNIX to the rest.

When sailing, you need stability. They are two ways to get it :

  • a big, heavy lead bulb under the boat
  • a second hull (makes more sense, and that’s why I prefer it this way)

My cat

Picture by Pascal Francey. June 3, 2007, lake of Biel, Switzerland. The wind was 1-2 Bft, and I’m already hanging out. As Benji says : it’s not clear why anyone would sail anything different than the Class A catamarans.

When not sailing, I’m an ETS engineer specializing in UNIX & network administration, with more than ten years experience in Sun Solaris. Check my company web site for details.

During my free time or when there is not enough wind to lift a hull, I’m as well webmaster, maintainer and editor for www.saca.ch and www.bordee-de-tribord.ch.

If you like what you see, read or get from my web site, you can show your appreciation by using my wish list.
