#Sailboat

Imagining myself at the wheel of a vessel like this, bound to nothing but where the stars lead me...it's enough to inspire me to pack my bags, look at my compass, and say "Set Sail, Follow the Sunset!".

Taken in Key West; February 2022.

This season's first sail on my husband's sail boat. I'm quite afraid of sailing but this time the winds were mellow, we didn't go for a very long trip and it was all very nice.

The summer this far in Finland has been pretty chilly. Last year in England people were surprised when I told them that yes, we have proper summers in Finland. Thank goodness nobody is visiting us this summer because it seems to become one of these no-summer summers. But the last 10 years it's been hot and dry! So even if we humans would like less rain and more heat, I'm sure all the plants and wildlife are quite satisfied with this kind of summer 💙🌍

Je viens de boucler ma désormais traditionnelle semaine de voile. Autour de Minorque cette année.
Je ne suis toujours pas la matelote le plus aguerrie du voilier... Border la grande voile, choquer le génois ou encore mettre au taquet sont des termes qui mettent souvent un temps certain à être décryptés par mon cerveau désespérément terrien 😉

Mais j'en ai encore pris plein les yeux ... et ai profité de ces moments privilégiés pour dessiner au fil de l"eau, la côte sud et ses couleurs crèmes dorées et les falaises de grès rouge au nord, mes préférées !

Le temps d'un mouillage ou à la volée quand le voilier filait ...

A monochrome shot of a marina filled with numerous sailboats and yachts. In the foreground, a large sailboat named "SAMURAI" is moored on the left, its tall mast reflected in the still, dark water. A light-coloured walkway with a lamp post runs along the left edge of the frame. In the background, rolling hills or mountains are visible under a partly cloudy sky, with some white cumulus clouds.

🎥 THE SAILOR

Ieri sera ho guardato questo docu-film sulla vita di Paul Johnson, un navigatore, un costruttore di navi, famoso per aver attraversato l'Atlantico in solitaria a 16 anni.

Mi ha colpito l'egoismo di una persona fragile, di un continuo altalenarsi tra libertà e schiavitù, tra felicità e dolore.
Una fuga continua da un dolore sconosciuto verso una meta ignota.

Buona visione ⛵

projects as of late: replacing the plywood in two of the three cabin cushions. Because we love extra work, we covered them in epoxy to waterproof them before we zip them back in. We’ll finally have a break from the rain, so I can wash and sundry the cushion covers.

We cut holes for the new sail pack displays, and are thisclose to finishing that aspect of the installation. We still have to install the transducer and the anemometer on top of the mast.

#Denmark Tests Unmanned Robotic #Sailboat Fleet for surveillance in #Baltic and #NorthSea
Built by California-based company #Saildrone, the vessels will patrol Danish and #NATO waters in the Baltic and North Seas, where maritime tensions and suspected sabotage have escalated sharply since #Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022. Two of the Voyagers launched Monday from Koge Marina, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) south of the Danish capital, Copenhagen.

Well, I own a boat now. And I plan to live on it.
There is so much to learn yet. But that's the exiting part !
(Plus dolphins, minus engine oil.)

I send thanks to the buyer from Iowa who purchased a metal print of

Gone Sailing -- 2-steve-henderson.pixels.com/f

May the artwork take you out onto the water on a perfect day, filled with sunshine, freedom, and companionship.

A tree with a sunset view to the sea

There are days when settling down and starting a travel business on a Pacific Island feels slightly tempting as an alternative career.

Like this day, years and years ago.

Not the most challenging hike along the ridge to the top of this tropical island, but the stunning view was worth far more than the afternoon light effort.
Backpacking along a Pacific island like Tavewa, hopping along the Yasawa islands chain in Fiji near Equator got its challenges.

Not big ones. But still.

Then, enjoying part of the vast body of water that is the South Pacific, the different size and types of islands, the colours and the outlook into the far horizon, and the different types of vessels people use to get around.

It makes your mind fly and the inspiration flow.
Still does.

Photo shows an outlook view from an elevated hill towards a set of smaller pacific islands. The nearest is a low crescent shaped one with palm trees and forest and a white beach. Behind the low island is an island with a set of small hills and small natural harbours with some huts and some boats moored. Behind the Pacific is stretching towards the horizon where there might be some island shapes under a light blue afternoon sky, with some clouds building up. In front of the photo there is a single small tree sharing the view. Down the hill for the tree, there is a larger body of water and two thirds of the way to the low beach island there are a collection of sailboats, motorboats and a small cruise ship berthed for the night. The sea is deep indigo blue. The tree has the warm colours of a late afternoon setting sun.
