Day 7 – Karlskrona-Stockholm

Thursday 1 July 2010
58* 47.03 N 017* 50.17 E just SW
of Torö (Landsort)

On our way at 1040 local time. Nice weather, Winds W 4-8 ms
We
sail inside the archipelago and here we meet many sailing boats on their way every which way. But there is good space and the wind is right. We are still a bit tired from yesterday, so we decide not to make this leg too long.

At 1700 local time we are in Askfatharbour at Dalarö after a very nice straight line sailing tour. Todays distance sailed 30 NM. Position 59* 08.14 N 018* 24.12 E.

Askfathamnen is a nice guest harbour to visit. Excellent service. Wlaking distance to the stores and town centre. Dalarö is a must see! We go shopping for some food and a treat of ice-cream. Well earned. We eat a nice dinner with some wine and good toetje!!!
Hah! Back into the race. Barometer is going up again. Better weather on the way. Let’s hope it will be some wind as well. Goodnight!
