Light winds makes lazy days at sea

Well, according to everyone else on the radio net there isn't supposed to be any wind around, but Maiken is still gliding along making 4 knots. The secret I think is really just that we either go wing in wing with the mainsail or just the big genoa with the spinnaker pole holding it out, it doesn't need much wind to push us along. Me and H�kan is getting really good at handling the fairly long pole around, while setting everything up. Other than that, it has been really lazy days on the boat, reading books (right now, we both read the same book unfortunetely "Atlas shrugged" by Ayn Rand, so we have to steal it from each other), and eating good. The last two days we have had swedish pancakes with cloudberry preserve (hjortronsylt) for breakfast. So, not much going on, just life at sea.

Take care,

Fredrik,
