Eissegelgemeinschaft Ratzeburger Seen e.V.
Sailing when the lake stands still.
Three runners, one sail, more than 100 km/h. Since 1987 we have sailed on ice and sand – on Lake Ratzeburg when it bears, and anywhere in Europe where the ice holds right now.
One of Germany’s largest ice sailing clubs – and one of the most relaxed
We are a registered club promoting ice and land sailing. With 55 members, EGRS is one of the largest ice sailing clubs in Germany. Our motivation: getting more people hooked on this sport.
The goal is not top results in each class, but having fun. If you don’t want to compete in international regattas, you are in good hands with us. If you do want to measure yourself against the best, we will help you make your yacht fast.
