Very long day yesterday, nearly 50 miles with a strong sailing wind over the stbd quarter, avge speed 5,7 kt, must be a record! Fun, but the motion was a bit wearying. Quiet night at the buoy, undisturbed by the goings-on on shore. Quick dip in 15,2 water. Puttered over the sound to the fuel dock, only to find a notice saying “Empty, more on Wednesday”. So. Away in a SSW direction a couple of hours motoring, (no wind today after yesterday’s blow) to the highest lighthouse “Högbonden”, on this part of the coast, called “Höga kyst” , which means high coast. Tis at least higher than I’ve seen for weeks, and a different look to it altogether. Almost like Norway! There are shapes on the horizon, not just thin smudges. The sun is trying to burn off the clouds, so maybe it will turn into a nice touristy day.
All’s well, from SailorJohn.
