S/Y Linnea

It was a bit nervous. The first sail of the year is bound to be bad. I remember one special year with an old boat of ours. Disaster. Rosehip soup all over the brand new main sheet. That stain does not go away! So the first sail, you want the wind to be perfect, everything double checked, some strong people on board. The kids stay on the jetty. Let’s just say we did the opposite this year. A bunch of relatives joined us, we were eleven people on board, some with quite dubious sailing experience.

So, what happened? Shipwreck? Disaster? Wounded limbs? No. The whole event was… uneventful in a good way. The only demanding maneuver was dropping two people off at the steam ship quay with a lot of swell involved.

So, here are the pictures:

Interior, cleaned a bit.

Steering station from the inside. Impossible to get a good camera view.

Idas new favorite spot.
