Back in Wittmund. Matilda out of the water and tucked away in a shed. A few modifications for the proposed trip to Norway next year still to be discussed. 
A good summer cruise this year inspite of  Brexit disruptions.
Church in Rerik. Fine concert for violin and théorbe. The explosion of instrumental music in the 17 th century: Ferrari, Marino, Biber etc.

Burgstraaken on Fehmarn. Constant babble on Ch. 16 as the German Navy tried to prevent yachties straying into the active firing area. 

Monday 19 September 2016

From Lohals on to Marstal, Bagenkop and today early start for Fehmarn. Great evening with crew of Resolute (link to blog will be added). Heard about their 5 years circumnavigation.
Like the double fuel filter system they had. Might upgrade.

Locals on Langeland after Vordingborg and Omø. Wonderful weather. Lots of school groups still afloat.

There is no way past Bach. I like the comparison with Porsche here

Bach and so on
Still with the BBC and the Sixteen.


Allegri
More of the series:


Byrd and Tallis
Landed in Vordingborg (Denmark). A reasonable wlan connection permits my usual musical wandering. The following must be an illustration of the BBC at it's best. Is The UK a nation of singers?

Sacred music

Friday 9 September 2016

Digital charts:

Finnland - "Sailmate"
Norway - "NaVida"

For future reference.
Back in Klintholm after great reach (60 nm) over from Ystadt. About 11 hours. Before that it was a good run down from Aspö to Simrishamn.

Saturday 3 September 2016

Still on Aspö. Suspect foreigners would not have been welcome here a few decades ago.

Friday 2 September 2016

Back at Karlskrona, but on Aspö, just South of the Town. After Kalmar (University extension coming on well) Kristianopel. SW wind was generating too much swell for South of Öland. Perhaps stay put tomorrow then long haul over to  Simrishamn on Sunday.
