Things are going well onboard

Good food and sailing makes a happy ship. A few are seasick but getting the hang of it. We are making good daily progress of around 200 miles a day. With a Northerly wind our direction is due East. We are getting a lift from a high pressure system that is on our tail. This high pressure system is becoming stationairy around the Azores. We will stay North of the System where we will keep the wsw winds.

We’ll keep you up to date on weather and Tres Hombres news. Yesterday we received a well appreciated message from captain Francois Mangin. Greetings back to our Nordlys friends who are sailing up the channel right now.

Best regards,

Captain Arjen van der Veen

Yes, there is a lot to tell about our adventures in the Baltic Sea, Kattegat, Skagerrak and the Sound … but let’s start with an impression of the alternative route from Holland to Ireland, over the top of Scotland.Cargo ships have schedules, which always have two sides. Or you are lucky and sail ahead of […]

In the channel again (By captain Andreas Lackner)

After a harsh start through, more than over, the big swells, coming into the bay of Les Sables, we left the friendly town and tug behind us and got underway up the Biskay. High, higha, Biskaya…true it was and many a stomach did not appreciate the food coming from our friends from the fertile land. […]

Ein Tag auf See (by David Schynoll)

Was erwartet mich auf einer Atlantiküberquerung? Auf einem fast hundert Jahre alten Schiff ohne Motor? Das habe ich mich bei Reiseantritt in der Karibik gefragt, das frage ich mich auch heute noch, eineinhalb Monate später. Es erwarten mich viele Herausforderungen und eintönige Stunden. Immer gleiche Tage mit den immergleichen Abläufen und Routinen, die doch jeder […]
