Spring tour 2021 part 1

 May 11th - May 13th Brekstad - Sivertsvika - Knarrlagsund

With the upcoming Ascension weekend it was time to sail to Sivertsvik marina to see if any other sailboats appeared there. 


To my knowledge no announcement was made about any organized tour, but anyhow 20 boats showed up - a lot for a tiny marina.

Myself ended up on the outside of S/Y Elanthea at a spot that was a little to shallow. It turned out that on low tide my rudder was into the bottom mud. By adjusting the boat forward and pulling the stern as much in as possible we managed to get her floating.


On the morning walk in the former Hysnes fort I met this shy guy. From Sivertsvik we sailed to Knarrlagsund. Even if several of us tried to sail from start there where to little wind to get any progress. But around half way somewhere between Garten and Agdenes the wind picked up and we could sail on a close reach in around 7 m/s. Good sailingsconditions form my Hanse and I maxed out at 8.5 knots. Some of us met for a nice dinner (mussels for me please) at the restaurant.
