About us
RBK-Yachting is led by Arno Kronenberg who has not only business management experience but also comprehensive marketing skills in the maritime industry. In addition, he is an keen yachtsman. Among other races, he competed in the prestigious Admiral’s Cup in 1987 and sailed the first leg of the 1989 Whitbread-Round the World Race (today's THE OCEAN-RACE; ex VOLVO-OCEAN-RACE). In total, he has crossed the Atlantic ocean 7 times and was honored with the “Tanja-Pokal” in 1997 for winning the stormy winter race from Durban to Cape Town. In January 1999, Kronenberg ended up all over the German media after he made it through the catastrophic Sydney-Hobart-Race, during which he sailed on one of the smallest boats and ended up second within his class.
