Translation (partly Google) of "Die Reichsseesportschuke Neusiedl am See" not perfect, but better than nothing ...

"With the annexation of Austria by Germany in March 1938, the new rulers began according to the National Socialist ideology establish youth organizations. Already in the first weeks the individual communities, established NS-associations like the "Hitler Youth" (HJ) or the "League of German Girls" (BdM). While in the local groups, the ideology has been strengthened, sporting and military exercises were held, and the girls were prepared for their role as wife and mother, it was just for building HJ-specialized agencies in the district of Neusiedl am See. In addition to the gliding exercise facility winch Jois on Hackelberg and the military training camp in Halbturn Castle saw the founding of the kingdom of sea sports school Neusiedl am See. To recruit sufficient trained recruits for the German Navy and Merchant Marine were sea sports schools in Bremerhaven, called the lake to life in Seemoos am Bodensee, in Prieros in Berlin and just in Neusiedl.

The plant, which was totally on pilots, consisted of two wooden building groups that were associated with a wide main web. one came from the country, so you had to pass the guard and entered after the parade. On the right side the crew quarters with washing, shower and toilet facilities were housed. Moreover, alongside the team hotel the premises of the station, the police station, the clothing and the material stock and the sail locker were housed. The second building was the leader building Personalkombüse, administrative and dining room, which also served as a classroom. As training boats were three fully equipped Segelkutter of Type II with a maximum of 40 cm depth, 2-0 dinghies, a 15m² Rennjolle and for towing a motorboat rides available.

A training course attended 80 to 120 young people who had to take an entrance exam before. To be included, on the one hand the sporting suitability was reviewed, on the other hand, the HJ membership was required and also a review of the political sentiments of the parents was held.
