Oslo Opera house

Posting a picture of the beautiful new Opera house in Oslo. I agree with Arne, it would be really cool to race our 2.4mR just outside the Opera house with a big crowd.
SWE 429 is finally in the marina, and ready to go. Sailing is definately planned for the coming weekend.

2.4mR möte på fredag eftermiddag

På fredag eftermiddag har vi möte med varvsförvaltaren angående hur och var vi ska få hålla till med våra 2.4mR båtar.
Tid preliminärt är någonstans runt kl 15:00.

Hör av er till blogmaster om ni kan ställa upp.

Peter V Andersson

Peter does the V for victory sign on Saturday night in Strängnäs. Very light conditions, not what Peter and his Stradivarie does best.

Johan is getting closer to getting his boat ready to sail.
Hopefully he is only 2 weeks away from test sailing his SWE383.

SWE429 will hopefully sail on Saturday or Sunday.
Blogmaster has been busy working on home improvement projects for the past week and a half.

SWE429 resting in Strängnäs

SWE429 at the dock on Saturday night.
She is a good boat, she just needs her skipper to steer her in the right direction...

Report from the race in Strängnäs

We raced for two days in very light wind conditions.
Nice weather, but like said, very light winds.
The organizers did a fantastic job with the arrangement.
Posting a picture of Peter Norlin, the designer of the Norlin Mark III boat.

Blogmaster ended up 27 out of 38 boats. I had higher ambitions, but had at least a couple of races when it "felt" like in the old days. The 2.4mR is a very complicated boat to sail really fast and I just need to spend more time practicing.

Mathias Gustafsson, a buddy from Nyköping and now residing in Strängnäs, did very well and ended up in 15th place in a borrowed boat! Great job!
