Back to Stockholm,31 August 2019

Back to Stockholm after ten days of sailing along in the Mälaren. This is closing a three month period of sailing onboard Belisama.

Passing Hammarby lock...

Tough land sickness expected!
A very nice ride early evening, as it takes a good hour to go through the lock and the three bridge openings.

Passing Hammarby Sjöstad

Arriving in Wasahamnen, located right after Grönalund amusement park

This may not be the end of the 2019 season. However, having extracted from the chart plotter all tracks for 2019, I plotted them on a google map in order to summarise the season.
In summary,

• Duration of the sailing season since 12 May 2019: 112 days
• Number of days with active sailing: 67 days
• Distance covered: 1618.4 nautical miles
• Average sailing distance per segment: 24.2 nautical miles, range 2.2 to 82.1 nautical miles

Here is the map of the season. Each segment on the map is linked to S/Y Belisama blog postings and to the "Coups de coeur" on the BalticSailors website!
