Legendariske Paul Elvstrøm -
havets rockstjerne
Jeg aner ikke hvor jeg skal begynde - hans 4x Olympiske guldmedaljer eller de 13 verdensmesterskaber eller alle hans opfindelser?
Mureren der trænede i moderens vaskekælder, så hårdt at han kunne hænge ud over rælingen i 15 minutter, hvor andres mavemuskler knap kunne klare ét minut?
Hans fairness, der formentligt kostede ham en bronzemedalje ved OL i 1984?
Hans vintertræning? Var Øresund iset til, fandt han en båd, der lavede en isfri rende, og sejlede bag den.

Paul Elvstrøm nær ædt af en haj - en sand anekdote
Under OL i Melbourne i 1956 blev en journalist rykket for en forsidehistorie og leverede denne:
”Paul Elvstrøm nær ædt af haj”.
Da chefredaktøren forsigtigt spurgte, om historien nu også holdt, lød svaret:
”Paul er sgu ligeglad, og hajen hører vi med garanti aldrig fra!”
(Øøøhh - det sande består i at journalisten lavede historien)
Hovsa - hvad med den restaurant?
Et besøg i Hellerup Sejlklub er et must. Her finder du ikke alene Øresunds bedste udsigt fra terrassen, men også en ypperlig og rimelig frokost.
Du skulle ofre en times tid her på at nyde sejlerne plaske rundt i havnen - der sker altid noget her.

Legendary Paul Elvstrom - the sea's Rockstar
How does one describe a man who puts everything in Danish sports to fade?
I have no idea where to start - his 4x Olympisk goldmedals or the 13 world championships or all of his inventions?
About the bricklayer who trained in his mother's laundry room, so hard that he could hang over the railing for 15 minutes where others barely cope with one minute?
His fairness that probably cost him the bronze medal at the Olympics in 1984?
His training during winter? Was the sea iced up, he found a boat that made an ice-free channel, and sailed behind it
Paul Elvstrom nearly eaten by a shark - a true anecdote.
During the Olympic Games in Melbourne in 1956 a journalist came under pressure for a cover story and delivered this:
"Paul Elvstrom nearly eaten by the shark."
When his chief editor gently asked if the story really held, he replied:
"Paul gives a damn and the shark will with guarantee never complain!"
(Ahem - the truth in this, is that the journalist wrote it)
Oops - what about that restaurant?
A visit to Hellerup Sejlklub is a must.
Here you will find not only Øresunds best views from the terrace, but also an excellent and reasonable lunch.
You should sacrifice an hour here enjoying the sailors splash around in the harbor - there is always something happening here.
