Ready to take off..........
Så er det ENDELIG blevet tid til afrejse - bagagen er tjekket ind, pungen er fyldt med frisktrykte dollarsedler og morgenmaden er indtaget på behørig vis i den super flotte business lounge i Billund Lufthavn (man har vel forbindelser).

Enroute through Southern Denmark to Kiel
... sundry – but it was a close run thing. Overhauling one or two classic heavy displacement yachts took a surprisingly long time proving that a classic wineglass hull shape can be surprisingly fast. The trimaran is only really fast when it is planing and for this it needs a close reach or a beam reach. We did not get such a wind direction until we entered the Kiel Fjord.
