Avonturen van volle zee
Mornings are grey, afternoons are sunny. Probably an effect from temperature changes. Dense fog at times and horn sound from invisible creatures. The Moon is growing each day among the stars. Breads rise well and overflow into the bottom of the oven and are delicious. The four cans of tea and coffee are very often […]
…of Skagerrak is quite smooth. 20 or 25 kts were expected in the middle so I drew a blue line on the chart, do not pass over. Fortunately we never had to dowse the royal and as soon as the wind increased we turned the ship around towards the peaceful Danish coast. Each watch gets […]
And so I return yet another time to Gudhjem, home of the Gods. This beautiful small port on the North East coast of Bornholm and its people hold a very special place in my heart. Sailing along the coast and passing the rugged cliffs, anticipation for our arrival rises. Soon Thor, the local wooden motor […]
Morning Watch Exact time, day and date are not the most important parameters on board. Therefore, watch changes, meals and sea miles gained towards the desired destination make you notice time passing by. After patiently awaiting the right wind and slowly moving along the southern Swedish coast, in the course of the night we finally […]
Ergens tussen 14:00 en 19:15 word ik wakker in het foxhole door een combinatie van heftige golfbewegingen en de daarbij behorende geluiden. Naast me, aan de andere kant van de boothuid, snelt het water in een kolkende, bruisende stroom. Iets hoger klinkt de golfslag, de typische af- en aanzwellende ruis van de zee. Af en […]
…stapte ik als trainee aan boord van de Tres Hombres, zonder enig verstand van zeilen. Ik voer mee de hele zomer, werkte mee op de scheepswerf, ging vervolgens mee naar de Carieb en nu ben ik deksman. Het kan gek lopen. In de eeuwenoude traditie van de ommelandvaart, waar ook de Hanze uit voortkwam, zeilen […]
After a beginning with 7 knots speed average, here we are, almost in Skagerrak. 30 miles away from the Danish coast and the low pressure eye caught up on us. Sunny, catching fishes for lunch, oiling the mooring cleats and repairing Jibs. All of the sails are squeezed to avoid extra damages from shafing and […]
Going away from TSS, platforms, windmills. Some cargo here and there, some calls, and all traffic goes smooth. We crossed our paths with bark Europa and Avontuur before, great to see those ships under sail far from the coast, courageous crew jumping on uncomfortable waves. The Royal is on holiday and the Main as well […]
We passed Le Havre longitude. Downwind for a few days. The squares are braced square. Gaff topsail is going up and down following needs from little squalls. And the Royal was not in use for a few hours around Ouessant island. The scenery just bit the screen. Teeth rocks emerged from the foamy sea where […]
