May 19th - May 21st (Sørumsand airplane) - Brekstad - Sivertsvik - Ansnes
I flew to Brekstad this time. Going through a COVID empty Oslo Airport was quite spooky. An almost empty flight roster for the rest of the day at 17.32 is quite telling for the impact the pandemic have.
Arriving at the boat and fresh sea air was a relief.
With COVID restriction not allowing organised arrangements we where a group of boats that just happened to meet at Sivertsvik boat club for a long weekend of cruising for Ascension. For me the cheeky cruise started with a short hop inward the fjord in pleasant spring weather.
Even keeping social distance it is possible to have a quite pleasant evening with fellow sailors. Especially when being served a panoramic sunset like this.
The new day the boats set sails in an initially quite vivid southeasterly.
A while after the wind became lighter and lighter. I spent the entire distance from Storfosna to the mouth of Fillfjorden on Hitra trying and not succeeding to set the genakker to keep ut with other boats sailing in the same direction.
At Ansnes several boats met again after a nice sail that included different degrees of engine usage.
