Karl's first trip this year, 1998. This is the island of Hjalton. It's not my boat, but another one just like it. . |
|
Two friends, who also like to anchor there. The boats are of the old west coast type "Koster". |
|
|
|
In the evening we had a barbecue on the beach. It was quite cold. |
|
There is a lot of room for anchoring boats. |
|
|
|
Next day I sailed out to the straits of "Nordströmmarna". This is entrance called "Lökskären". |
|
This is a very narrow passage called "Råberget", where you don't want to meet the passenger vessel "Byfjorden". Fortunately she always sends a warning on the VHF, before she comes. |
|
|
|
Now we're coming up to Bassholmen, where a lot of old boats are moored. |
|
Out on the fjord Gullmaren I met a Vindo 50 setting sails. |
|
|
|
She is on her way, but a Vindo 40 is faster. |
|
Now I can see the open sea. This is one of my favorite cliffs at the coast. |
|
|
|
On my way home to Uddevalla I passed the Vindo yard as usual. This is what it looks like now a days. |
|
There are a lot of Vindo boats there, but the don't build any. |
|
|
|
Only 3 M to go to get home I took a look at the building site of the bridge over the fjord outside Uddevalla. The name of the fjord is Byfjorden. |
|
Please send me more Vindo pictures to show here! |
