As part of the presentation of TOP we launched the video to an enthusiastic crowd. 

”Hardly anyone has made such a huge contribution in the Swedish yacht design field about her/his father as you have. It is honorable and respectful in all aspects”. 

 

”Einar never got credits for his designs by the Stockholm sail yacht society. The two most skilled naval architects at the time were Einar Ohlson and Olle Enderlein. Einar and Carl-Eric have always fascinated me”.
