No cleaning here, outside!!!!" Our dear cleaning lady Sukra chases me out of the More Sailings office in Marina Kremik, I am absolutely not allowed to clean the grill in the sink in the kitchen but this should be done outside! On top of this, water should not be used but a real strong all-purpose cleaner that makes the eyes water, there is no point in trying to contradict.

I have Fredrik has started to pack equipment for the boat, as I said, it is not only sails and ropes that will be included. Among other things, the grill must be cleaned, the medicine cabinet updated, the line on the fishing rod must be changed, tools inventoried and the expiration date on life jackets must be checked. Practical items such as a baking machine, plastic cups and thermoses need to be purchased. The list is long and we will have no problem filling the days with activities before we cast off.

For the first time we got to meet Herlog Berge, the Norwegian who will sail with us all the way from Croatia to the Caribbean. Herlog met us with the same enthusiasm for sailing as we ourselves have and I can only say that I think it will be great!

Offers a crazy nice sunset that we chased at the last second. It was hard to catch, Fredrik had to back up 200 meters up a narrow alley uphill to get home again, thanks Fredrik!
