a day of rest + planning

Today was very little wind, so I chose to stay in Klintholm and use the day in different ways.

drying gloves and warming feet
working half day

Paying bills. Taking a nice, hot shower in the harbour.

cooking delicious dinner

Checking weather.

Researching on how to use the 42 m² “blister” (or gennaker) sail for tomorrow, which will be another day with little (but some) wind from behind.

Reading about different harbours on Sweden’s South coast (in case I cant get to Smygehamn). Looking up lighthouses along my route and learning their light signatures (individual sequences of bright light and pauses). Repeating rules about navigation lights on different types of boats, because along my way I will cross some major paths for the big, commercial ships.

Tomorrow will be the longest leg of my tour (40 nautical miles) which I will sail probably at the slowest average speed – so it could get dark before I arrive.

I am quite curious how it will work. As always, you can follow my track here:

Wishing you all a wonderful night…

One thought on “a day of rest + planning

  1. Hallo Boran, schön dass du wieder hier schreibst. Ich lese es sehr gerne und freue mich, dass du eine neue Herausforderung hast. Viel Spaß weiterhin und immer genug Wasser unterm Kiel, Luft unterm Hintern oder Fels unter den Fingern.
