She's baaaack! :D (Patreon)

Hi guys!

She's baaaack! Ava is here! We haven't seen each other for something like 350 days. Now that she's here, it feels like we've only been apart for a few weeks. We got right back to our usual rhythm.

In boat-related news - we have a lot of stuff to get done in the next month! There is a good chance we won't be able to finish everything. If we're not and can't leave Skive in the beginning/middle of august, we'll slightly change our plans. Plan A is to head straight to Scotland by crossing the North Sea. That means a three-day offshore passage. I don't want Ava to have a bad experience on her first overnight passage! Statically August is the best month for crossing the North Sea.  If we can't get a good weather window or get delayed, plan B is to head south along the east coast of Denmark and cross to the UK. That will mean less time spent offshore, and we can pick and chose when to sail. Next year when we know the boat better, and we've been sailing together for a while, weather will be less of a concern :) 

The next couple of days we're staying at my parent's place in Hune (a summer town in northern Denmark). That'll allow us to finish painting the forward cabin (freezer area) without sleeping in the fumes. The downside is that it's a 1.5-hour drive to get to Skive. That means we're wasting 3 hours every day, so it's not a long-term situation. 

Today is a planning day. We're ordering stuff we need for next week, planning what we'll be doing on the different days. It's nice to have a quiet day together before we unleash mayhem tomorrow ;) We'll be hanging out in the comment section a little later :) 

I hope you've had a good weekend :) Thank you so much for your support! Stay safe :)
