60 seconds with returning member, Maxim Djura
Guest User
We are pleased to welcome Maxim Djura back to the club after his stint in Queensland Here are a few things about Maxim that you may not know.
How old were you when you first stepped on a boat?
I was about 8 years old when I had a not very pleasant cruise on a keelboat without an outboard motor. As soon as I returned back to shore, I said I liked it but would never sail again.
If money (and sailing ability) were no limit, what boat would you buy?
Moth, I suppose, or something similar with hydrofoils. I would get AC75 if I convinced enough DBSCers to sail on it. It certainly will be a favourite to win the sunday keelboat race series.
What is your ultimate sailing goal?
Don't stop sailing.
Tell us the story behind the name of your Laser?
I don't have a laser at the moment, but I already have a name for it - penguin. I found dinghies and penguins are similar in the way they move on land and in water. I hope there is no laser called orca.
If you could add any ingredient to DBSC's world’s best toasties – what would it be?
Beer, I guess.
What are your second/third favourite hobbies (assuming sailing is #1)?
Swimming and dancing
Describe what you do for work in less than five words?
Solve problems by means of computers
What is the first international destination you will travel to (once we're allowed) and why?
Poland to see relatives
What is your favourite TV show, movie, and/or book?
There is a lot to choose from, so here are titles from top of my head
Surely, you're joking Mr. Feynman, Gattaca, The Billion Dollar Code
Tell us something interesting about yourself that members of the club don’t know?
I think that Moreton bay s*^ks
