Meet the Klabauter Crew
We are running KlabauterShop full time from our boats (apart from shipping).
Thanks to modern technology, we can realise our dream of a life at sea and work location independent.
Please understand that due to this special situation, we cannot provide continuous support via telephone.
But we answer every email within 24h. Even on weekends.
Jan Athenstädt
...has founded KlabauterShop in 2018 as an addition to KlabauterKiste, a German online magazine. Since 2019, Jan is full time cruising on his Laurin 32 ahora. With his arrival in Greece, he completed his circumnavigation (of Europe ;-) ) and is now planning the next big journey (on a slightly larger boat).
Jan (occasionally) writes on his blog about his adventures as sailing digital nomad. Besides KlabauterShop, Jan is also teaching about boat-tech at BoatHowTo together with boat-tech guru Nigel Calder.
Matthias Rummel
...supports Jan since 2021 with the work in KlabauterShop. Together with his girlfriend Luisa, he is cruising full-time since 2020, now on their Sadler 34 "Wanderling". After extensive explorations of the European cost and the North Atlantic's islands, they sailed across the pond and are now cruising in the Caribbean.
They tell their stories in their German Youtube Channel and on their Blog.
Anuschka Rudholzer & Josias Schwaiger
...have bought a Hallberg Rassy P28 in 2021 and completed a full refit during a period of 1.5 years. In June 2022 they cast off the lines and sailed through the Adriatic and Ionian Sea into the Aegean. They now keep exploring the Eastern Med.
In Greece they crossed paths with Jan. The beer in the harbor bar turned into a spontaneous job interview, and since 2023, the two are part of the Klabauter Crew.
