  • An Ecologic Catamaran?

    Last weekend I visited the Cannes boat show to see the Windelo 50 catamaran. It is a beautiful and innovative performance catamaran — which is great all by itself. It is also, however, marketed as an ecological catamaran, which sounds fantastic. But what does that really mean?

  • Moovin’ to the Groovin’

    After two nights and one whole day of jolly swimming at our Kråkelund anchorage, we pulled the anchor to continue onward. Or actually, backward, since the wind had decided to turn. The original plan was to continue south, towards Skåne and Kattegat. The other and equally important original Click here for full post: https://nakedsailor.blog/2021/09/14/moovin-to-the-groovin/ Twitter: […] More

  • Bonjour, Windelo 50!

    As a few people already noticed, we sold our dear Hanse 388 a while ago, and at the moment we are looking for the next boat. There are still a few blog posts left to write from our summer adventures, but here in between, I visited the Cannes Yachting Festival Click here for full post: […] More

  • Kråkelund

    After a week in the bustling city of Visby, and a nice sail over towards the mainland, it was time to enjoy the peaceful and rather secluded archipelago on the southeast coast of Sweden. And time to what we all had been waiting to do since we left Click here for full post: https://nakedsailor.blog/2021/09/04/krakelund/ Twitter: […] More

  • From Fog to Unclear Destinations

    After a bit less than one (very enjoyable!) week in Visby, we were all ready to head onwards and in the general direction of our next destination. We didn’t really know what that destination would be, though. “Maybe Kalmar?” we had loosely discussed the day before. Destination: Downwind “This Click here for full post: https://nakedsailor.blog/2021/08/14/from-fog-to-unclear-destinations/ […] More

  • Vinyl Wrapping Update

    I’ve received a few questions about our whole vinyl wrapping experience, so here’s a short post about that! Wrapped Hull Color When we got the boat in the spring of 2019, it came with the standard white hull. Long before that, however, we had decided we wanted to Click here for full post: https://nakedsailor.blog/2021/08/11/vinyl-wrapping-update/ Twitter: […] More

  • Rock On, Visby!

    It was lovely to be in Visby again! We adored the place last time we visited, so it was clearly on all of our wish lists to stop by this time as well. “If you ask me, I wouldn’t mind being there all summer!” Charlotte said. Here are some Click here for full post: https://nakedsailor.blog/2021/08/10/rock-on-visby/ […] More

  • Hanse 388 Motoring Speed

    Earlier in the spring, I had the pleasure of motoring through the magnificent Finnish Archipelago sea with absolutely no wind and very flat water. As I also had a freshly cleaned bottom, it was a great time to retest the motor cruising speeds of our Hanse 388!

  • Ahoy, Gotland!

    After an evening on the beach and a whole day walking around and exploring (a small part of) the beautiful island, we felt ready to sail onward. (Not before leaving a big thank you to the nice caretaker person we met on the island, though! We got a Click here for full post: https://nakedsailor.blog/2021/07/18/ahoy-gotland/ Twitter: […] More

  • The Sand Island

    We had loaded ourselves and our stuff aboard— with surprisingly little drama, I might add!— and we were ready to go. Ready to start the (hopefully mostly enjoyable) process of replacing brave expectations with actual experiences, and memories to be. “Bye bye, Turku!” the children shouted (and I too), Click here for full post: https://nakedsailor.blog/2021/07/11/the-sand-island/ […] More

  • Light-Air Crossover Sailing

    Less than a week now, until we will embark on our third summer sailing adventure! We still don’t know where we will go, but this post isn’t about that. This post is about a short solo trip I did last week. During that trip, for an hour or so, I Click here for full post: […] More

  • Hanse 388 Rigging

    A while ago I got a question about what lines go where on the deck, and a “maybe you could write a blog post about the rigging?” Yes, I can!
