Congratulations to Mathias SWE319 who got a baby daughter yesterday!



Posting a picture of Mathias and his older daughter Tilda sailing last Thursday.
Mathias got another baby daughter yesterday. All of us in the Nyköping fleet of 2.4mR's sends our congratulations to Anna and Mathias!

Sailing tonight



Johan and Blogmaster sailed in beautiful wind and warm weather tonight.
Johan is showing great boat speed with his new SWE393 (SWE429 in his sails).

We plan to sail again before the weekend to beat the cold front they claim is due on Saturday.

SWE393 showing great performance for it's first time out!


We sailed in beautiful weather and a nice sea breeze tonight. Johan did very well for it being his first time out in SWE393 (with wind). He sailed with borrowed sails, but showed impressive boat speed despite the sails not being of the latest design.

Temps around 27 degrees (80F) and clear blue skies. Swedish summer at it's best in other words. Sunday looks like the next time we will sail.

Sailing tomorrow Thursday! Torsdagssegling imorgon!


We will meet at the marina around 16:00 tomorrow Thursday the 24 of July.

Johan, Mathias, Conny and Blogmaster are going to sail.
Hopefully we will get Lennart going after the vacation and with his house remodeling done. I have a pretty big remodeling of my garage/ workshop to deal with this summer. This is definitely cutting back on my sailing time. But tomorrow and Sunday it looks like sailing.

Summer video

Posting a video clip from Sunday afternoon.
An over strained arm prohibits Blogmaster from sailing at the moment.
Sunny and a nice breeze today, but sailing is going to have to wait until the arm has healed.

Drifting


Johan finally got his SWE393 "Doris" in the water yesterday July 1st. The boat seams light and looks like a brand new boat. Johan looked very happy despite the lack of wind.

Sailing is planned for Friday July 4th, Independence day in USA.

Mathias and blogmaster took the opportunity (Mathias did most of the work) to cut the grass around our launch crane. We might have to do this one more time this summer, but for now it looks 100% better.
