A Little Gem of a Place - + Seals!
... the photo is a grey, not the endangered harbour seal.
The entrance into the outer harbour is surrounded by rocks and once inside, the way into the inner harbour is even narrower but once in, you’re a safe as houses. When we arrived, there was room to spare but by the end of the afternoon, boats were 3 deep. Luckily for us, a lovely, classic wooden boat on its way home after the rally season in Sweden placed herself outside us, that put ...

Today we wanted to get to Karlskrona, about another 30 miles. The wind was quite light at 06:15 when we set off but sure enough, after an hour or so, it picked up, on the nose and blowing a good F5 at times – slow progress.
