Quiet time in Helsinki - 4 to 7 July 2018

We found a berth in the centre of the city, at walking distance from the cathedral and the railway station. This was a rapid stopover to fetch new crew members. The Helsinki marina where we are is quite expensive for a boat of our size, and did not provide with a decent WIFI signal. Quite a disappointment, but so well located!

Nynäshamn - Hanko, Finland, 29 & 30 June 2018


Friday afternoon, after work, we depart from Nynäshamn for the first segment of the vacation, from Nynäshamn to Hanko at the southwest tip of Finland. A 165 mile ride directly through the Baltic. Weather 4D was clear that leaving Friday evening with significant northern winds was the best way to get through this. The routage from the app indicated a 24 hour cruise. It took us 25. Not bad app!

Hanko marina, the largest in Finland!
