About Annemiek Bekkering
I started sailing in an Optimist when I was 6 years old. When I was too old for an Optimist, I changed to the 29er and had a fun time. From 2009 until 2012 I did an Olympic campaign in matchracing. After that I went back to the skiff and since then I’ve been sailing 49erFX.
I love to be out on the water and enjoy the sailing. The speed combined with the tactical game of sailing is lots of fun!

Why choose Musto?
Musto has high quality products and at the same time it is comfortable. The dinghy line of Musto is perfect for racing skiffs, because it is easy to move around the boat wearing one of the long johns. I am fast and flexible in my Musto kit.
