Back on land

We got couple of great sailing days on our last two legs from Kemi to Oulu via Röyttä. I can tell you that sitting in the marinas waiting for a weatherwindow is far more interesting than staying in the city.

Sunsets, oh those Sunsets

Back to the fastland

We have returned from the national park islands to the fast land and soon we need to start sailing back to the home marina. The weather has not been super-nice everyday but we did have some lovely sunny days for island exploring. There are a lot of pics for posting once on land. I have adopted using a phone app so on the road, or at the sea, the posts are shorter as you might have noticed ;-)

Booriinggg

Staying in the harbours due to bad weather conditions is known to cause symptoms of satamasairaus as known in Finnish. One could translate it freely as marina boredom...

Red Hot Sunset

In the storm

I have started the Second vacation cruising of the summer. However, today I suspended the sailing due to strong West winds and rain.

Night shift

I am super tired today as could not start sleeping until 4 a.m. And I should have stayed awake even later. The reason was that the last night was my vessel's turn to take care of the night guard duty in the home marina. I was thrilled to help the crew in the task, to stay outdoors till midnight and look after everything.
