With an area of high pressure dominating the North Sea Seventh Wave had a docile crossing... we motored most of the way!! After a fantastic trip through the Caledonian canal we are now back at Craobh marina. Next we have a 10 day cruise aiming to get to Stornoway. iPhone mail

We have just completed the first cruise of the season sailing around some of  the islands on the west coast of Sweden. Although cold the weather has been fantastic with mostly sunny days. The islands are very pretty and sailing idyllic and gentle.

Work on replacing Seventh Wave's decks has now started. The old decks are stripped away and they are preparing the surface for fitting the new ones on. Along with this some structural work is being done. She should look stunning when finished! QFL Feb 2010 048.JPG

 

Seventh Wave now enters winter mode

After nearly slipping on a frosty pontoon and increasing numbers of gales sweeping across us time has come for Seventh Wave to be tucked up for winter. Sailing in Sweden has been fantastic and as far as I know all the crews really enjoyed sailing amongst the islands of the Swedish west coast. Travel across has been very good, really easy especially being based in the middle of Goteborg right by the bus and rail stations. We are now at Ellos (with a gale blowing full blast!) where Seventh Wave is to be lifted out of the water (yellow crane in picture below will lift her) and taken by road to a shed. Then the big job starts getting the old decks removed and new ones fitted. If the price isn't too high we may also get her hull re painted which with the new decks will make her look stunning!

 

cruising Sweden

Just coming to the end of the second cruise on the Swedish West coast. It's a brilliant place to Visit. So many facilities that cater for yachts. The area gives very protected sailing yet also one can Venture out into rougher waters if need be. With the first cruise the weather was quite demanding with near gale force winds through the trip.This did not Prevent enjoyment and some great sailing. A visit to the island of Styrso was a highlight especially the lovely little houses and narrow streets. The second trip had more docile weather and going north we managed to circumnavigate the islands of Orust and Tjorn. One big highlight was visiting Ellos and the Halberg Rassy factory where Seventh Wave was built. Her first time back since 1986! A very useful planning meeting was had with Kai who will be fitting the new decks over winter. Next few days sees some almost Indian summer type weather with lots of sunshine..wonderful!
