2018 Sailing around England: #Padstow is a lovely place in #Cornwall in South West England. A gate protects the harbour from falling dry. You have to find the right timeslot to enter the marina.

2018 #Sailing around England; the #Menaibridge near Anglesey in front of the #swellies. If you want to sail through here, you will save at least one day compared to sailing around Anglesey. Careful preparation is essential for the passage.

On our tour to #Scotland in 2022 we passed the #Limfjord to get into the #Northsea. A beautiful fjord with lots of fish and a few mussel farms.

On my 2018 sailing trip, I am travelling around England on the left. From Grimsby, we sail to #Bridlington on the recommendation of the harbour master. The #harbour of Bridlington is not protected from ebb and flow by a lock or gate. It falls dry.

I didn't expect so much #barnacle growth. At least the growth was easy to remove with the #biocide-free antifouling.

We had good wind on the crossing to the island of #Møn. Overall, it felt like there was a lot of wind in the Baltic Sea this year.

Blue-green algae seen from the #ZERO #sailing boat.
You can also see the huge carpets of blue-green algae from the satellite. They tend to form in the Baltic Sea in August, as the Baltic Sea reaches 20 degrees in many places and the nutrient input from agriculture favours the growth of theese algae.

The small #harbour of #Kåseberga in Sweden gave us shelter for the night. We visited nearby a somehow mysterious stone parc, being setup up by the #vikings around 1000 years ago.
