Sailing life

Koch switched, with his brother Roman Koch, after a good run in the Flying Dutchman in 1977 to the Soling. Koch as midperson won his first Soling World Championship 20–27 May 2005 of the Tyrrhenian sea in front of Castiglione della Pescaia, Italy with Roman Koch and Gregor Bornemann.[22][1][2] The second time took place five years later 5–13 February on the Guaiba river off the coast of Porto Alegre, Brasil.[22][3][4] After the Championship in Castellione the Koch team earned the nickname "The Maremma boys". In 2009 the Koch team took the silver at the Soling Worlds in Etobicoke, Canada. Furthermore, Koch won two gold and five silver medals at Soling European Championships between 2003 and 2013 all as midperson and with the same team members. Koch holds many national Championships in several countries.
