Soviken ( Torö)

An early start and stroll to bakery before departure from Harstena. The weather grey and light winds.
The dinghy is slowly deflating!The repair job was successful on the hole we did but not a large enough patch it would seem, as the tiniest of holes now found just outside the patch .
Our route today was to head towards Nynäsham .... it was a long day downwind thank goodness- with little help from the sails. The light squalls kept the temperature down . By the time we headed into the narrows for shelter, the wind picked up, and in true Whisper style, we were reaching 10knots . The light was still good as we found the buoys, but both were taken so in a very windy spot ( although substantially sheltered in comparison to the open sea) we anchored firmly.
After a long day. We settled in and let the sway commence. The wind refused to die down till the early hours, so the remoteness could not be fully appreciated on board as we kept warm below.En savoir plus
