Preparing for take off








The car broke down. Again. Conveniently, it did so at the same time our sailing club informed us that the boat has to have a more secure cradle when grounded for winter. Luckily through Blocket.se we found a new cradle sold by a man who, gladly volunteered to help us transport the iron cradle, prepare it for our boat and also oversee the grounding itself. Thanks a heap, Sten. You da man. Things are in place now. And we have spent most of the week meeting friends and relatives.
And today I and my friend Kristoffer (on the picture) prepared the boat for winter. The photos above shows Penina before preparation and after, and Kristoffer, proudly standing on deck. Lets see how proud he is after the autumn winds has whipped and torn the neat package into pieces by mid-October. On top an image from Abukars flat, where we have lived for a couple of days now. Essingeleden by night. Downtown Hornsberg.
