what is red, flurry, warm, little bit moist inside and smells like herring? - the skippers cap!
We continued the trip towards North. In the beginning while we were setting the sails up, Archie - the Autopilot - made a small error and we little bit broached scaring the crew for a while. After that we got really heavy winds under the clouds in front of Borgholm.
Then suddenly all the wind went away for several hours..
We sailed the whole night, and the major part of the next day... until we finally reached Oxelösund, where the trip will continue directly non-stop to Helsinki on the 26th of June.
Great trip you are having. We were also practising last week how to broach outside of Villinki in the Helsinki waters. We were practising maneuvers with spinnaker on a 35 footer and our skipper was more interested in how the sheet was going than keeping the boat's direction. A slight turn towards the wind and the ruddder lost control and off we went... No damages though.
