Lennart, Conny, Gunnar och undertecknad träffades vid NYSS på Brandholmen på lunchen idag lördag. Vi diskuterade en ny kranlösning som även ska klara av båtar av typen 606.

Är detta vår nya kran?

Diskussioner med 606 seglare i NYSS har lett till frågan om vi ska sätta upp en ny kran som klarar både 2.4mR båtar och 606?

Ett nytt fundament behöver gjutas så nära vattenbrynet som det är möjligt. Med 4 meters kranarm torde inte någon muddring behövas.

Ett möte planeras under lördagsförmiddagen (29/3). Så många som möjligt av flottiljens medlemmar bör komma och tycka till. Hör av er till blogmaster så fort som möjligt så att vi får bestämma tid till mötet.

Happy Easter!

The Nyköping fleet wishes all our readers a Happy Easter!

Soon we will be sailing, even if we are currently experiencing a set back in the weather here in Sweden. It is colder now than what we have had all winter...

Posting another picture of my brothers new little boat "Juni".
I´m at the same time showing his son, my nephew Hjalmar how a Blog works.

Postar en ny bild på min brors nya lilla båt "Juni".
På samma gång visar jag hans son, min brorson Hjalle hur en Blog fungerar.

Over 10000 visitors!!!

Today we broke through 10000 visitors/hits on our blog site.
Blogmaster is happy about this and will try to keep up the work on servicing this blog.

The Nyköping fleet is planning a PUB evening within the next two weeks. Please let blogmaster know which evenings works best for you.

Posting a picture of "Pojkbåten" Juni that my brother bought two weeks ago.
While working on his 6mR SWE 31 "Silvervingen" he will sail this little beauty this coming summer. Pojkbåt means a boy´s boat in English. Silvervingen means Silver wing in English. That might have been easy for you English speakers to figure out without me telling you...

Testing out new sails from North 2007

Posting a sailing picture from last year. My brother Fredrik took this pictures of SWE429.

We are closing in on 10000 hits on our blog site and that is a lot of fun. It is blogmaster´s intention to keep posting sailing pictures and gossip from the Nyköping fleet.

Comments

Since someone posted a comment that linked to a virus site here on our blog, blogmaster have changed the settings for comments. Now all comments have to be approved by blogmaster. I'm sorry to have to do this, but I don't want anyone of our readers to get viruses because they tried to read the comments.

Eftersom någon postade en kommentar med en elak länk till en virus site här på bloggen så kände jag mig tvungen att ändra intställningarna så att jag måste godkänna alla inlägg. Jag är ledsen att jag måste göra detta, men känner mig tvingad då jag inte vill att någon ska få virus på sina datorer p.g.a. de besöker vår blog.

The early years part four

In our series the early years, the final page of the 1983/84 flyer.
The Odd 1:5 is slightly smaller and lighter than the later Norlin and Malmsten boats.
Something that shows especially in heavier wind conditions.
I remember the summer of 1983 with great joy. I sailed the Odd 1:5 as ofter as I could. Many times I spent 6-7 hours in the boat per day and enjoyed every minute of it.

The early years part three

Posting another picture from the early years of 2.4mR/Mini12 sailing. Blogmaster is visible in S 36 on port tack. This picture is taken on "Segelbåtens dag" sailboat day in Stockholm, September 15th 1983. I´m not 100% sure on the date, my memory might not be correct on that. September 1983 I´m pretty sure is correct. Also notice the spinnaker sailing with a 2.4mR/Mini12.

The early years part two

This is part two in our flashback to the early eighties.

Odd´s 1:5- A twelve in scale 1:5

Unsinkable

Fast

One design for everyone

Internal ballast- offcourse

Teaches you everything

The early years

It took me quite some time to see that Odd Lindqvist had posted a reply on our blogsite. In his honor, I have scanned some pictures from a advertising flyer made after the race in Stockholm, September 1983. I have scanned the entire newsletter and will post more pictures, check back in later for more goodies.

Det tog mig en bra stund att se att Odd Lindqvist hade postat ett inlägg på vår blogg sida. Till hans ära postar jag här några skannade bilder från ett reklamblad som måste vara från senhösten -83, eller tidig vår -84. Jag kommer att posta alla sidorna i reklambladet den kommande veckan, så titta in igen för mer om de tidiga åren.
