Today we got the boat seaworthy, and off we sailed. We had gasoline and a fully charged battery and our life-jackets on.

We drove to Benita’s to top up the gasoline and then sailed off around the nearby islands, waving to Marco Bjurström as we passed his island.

Overhead the sky has a few fluffy clouds and down here the sea is blue green. I take some photographs as we bounce up and down in the waves left by larger boats.

We will drive to Tirmo to buy a beer and (mostly) to get some landing, tying up, and leaving practice. We now have our nautical skills honed.
