Bringing the new boat from France to the Baltic Sea
Our cooker swings freely, so even at harsh conditions we can prepare nice meals
Bringing the new boat from France to the Baltic Sea
Bringing the new boat from France to the Baltic Sea
Planning the best way through the tides of the english channel
We almost have made it home with the new Boat - A break in the channel between north and baltic sea
On our first ski tour together
The Welding Machine of Markus grand father proved itself quite useful for us - we started improving our boat
Welding a new coaming in after the old was consumed by rust.
A hard project in our home climbing area
Out for Bouldering with friends

While derosting, we sprang a leak - To much rust on the bottom of the boat. Markus cuts out the infected parts.
After incredible hard two weeks - Our hull did not have any more hulls but was ready for a new layer of paint again
There are always little things to do - This time the electric of the navigational lights made problems. But with DIY we can fix it!
In the middle of the night, we decided to get going and leave or old lives behind us
To get to Norway, we have to sail North on the Baltic Sea
It gets suprisingly Cold on the water - You don't move that much and the wind is constantly blowing..
The sunrise and sundowns on the sea make it often all worthwhile
The whole Island has just 4 permanent inhabitants. We saw none of them.
While beeing on sea, lighthouses are tremendous important for us - To see important landmarks gives you a sense of securtiy in the desert of the sea
The waterway from denmark to sweden is heavily crowded. Compared to all these big ships, we feel quite small.
In the middle of the night, we arrived in Sweden and chosed a cozy anchoring spot

Arrived in Sweden, we prepared the tender and visited some small islands
Bohuslän is on of the hotpspots of rock climbing in sweden - For us reason enough to see for ourselfs
After a big fall, Markus is a little bit injured. I took the opportunity and hiked to a small island
Most of the routes that we climb don't have bolts - So we are required to bring our own protection.
The fall is spreading through the fjords and paints the forest in a yellow touch. Still, the victory over a route lasts.
To prepare for the Big routes, we use our finger board quite often. One of the few possibilites to excercise on Board
We finally are on our way to Norway. It is snowing outside. So we spend as much time as possible inside while the autopilot is steering.
Finally, Norway. We sailed through the infamous Skagerrag and Kattegat Areas. When we arrived, it was still cold and wet.
Here in Norway, we finally see some mountains. What a relief!
Mid of November, the weather is still good. We use this to hike to the famous Preikestolen.
We made it to the famous Rock called Preikestolen. The view is worth the trouble.
Often, the water is deep enough to go directly to the rock and moor on some trees
The view in the morning after we got up.
All the time, we have the feeling that we are the only leisure boat that is out here that time of the year.
Sailing through the fjords to Bergen
This island gave us the opportunity to moor directly on the trees again. We had it all for ourself.
