Parattula guest harbour, south east of Gustavs (Kustavi), is our place for the night. It took five minutes under seven hours to travel sixty nautical miles today. Now for the traditional one.

A short stop to Iniö. Filled her up and ate a small snack. We’re less than ten nautical miles from today’s goal.
N 60 20 E 21 36
The sea seems to be quite empty of boats. Maybe the slow rain and still wind doesn’t invite people out. But we keep on going. This weather is great for a bit longer leg. We’re just passing an island called Hevonkack south east of Iniö. Heading north at the moment.

It has rained all day and it is still raining. We took the route over Gullkrona fjärd and are heading towards Nagu.
N 60 03 E 22 14
Gullkrona Fjärd. A little rain, never hurt no-one… as Tom once sang.
N 59 56 E 22 23
We’re on our way. The plan is to reach a harbour some 50 nautical miles north west from Kasnäs. It’s still raining.
Day four
The rain I thought we’d have yesterday, came this morning. The sky was grey when we woke up and before we got to the breakfast raindrops were falling. Totally uncool.

Built 1983 in Emsalö (Emäsalo) by fisherman Uddström. There are 160 horses encapsulated in a Yanmar diesel, and they run at a maximum of 3300 rpm, which gives a top speed of 16 knots. A good travel speed is 9-11 knots. Träbåten is registered to a maximum of ten passengers but there’s only three bunks.
This is a HTML message, sorrySvartström lär sig aldrig! Det må vara franska berg eller Holländskt plattland, solens inverkan på nyllet går inte in i skallen, den tycks bara fastna utanpå. Röd och sjuk igen… Här är varmt och soligt idag, hagel igår!
