Shipping News - Part 3
took with good wind, the sailor team yesterday on the ride again. But the set Fock was sufficient to achieve a 6 knots (~ 11km / h). With a similar boat on the river Havel I have achieved far more than 4 knots in a large set AND headsail.
turns during the night but the wind and the waves, which previously pushed it forward from behind the boat struck, now also against the ship. At this point, the recently boarded has regretted her decision certainly - the rocking drove so many to the rail.
The current was against the sailors. In this way, they had a piece of already overcome their way lose and went back to Stavanger in into port.
generous plans were associated with an entrance from the Danish port of destination for Thursday. Since however, is now seen regularly after the wind and that only if it is cheap, now expired, in order to achieve possible before the next rotation to the nearest port, would this target shaken.
But at least they have "left" is already the Atlantic and are already in the North Sea . For those who now stand on their seamanship skills doubting come Skagerrak will still be a challenge. Here, too, should not necessarily expect a smooth ride.
Curious I am, they wish to make the curve to zuzuhalten on Denmark. The large ferry commute between Kristiansand (Norway) and Hirtshals (Denmark). As a small four-to six-man sailboat I would not take on these giants, however, in addition to the size, in speed have an advantage. If one could avoid such boats on time?
