Sandvikene - Jomfruland

FINALLY something different from headwinds or totally flat! A gentle breeze on the starboard stern quarter (5-8 knots) ending with a downwind sail in to port at magical Jomfruland 😎👌 Some swell and waves, 28 degrees in the air. Totally clear skies. Epic! Added fuel and water in Kilsund, and had to wait 25 minutes to get a spot in the marina at Jomfruland. Should have anchored in stead 😅 Perfect day!

Farsund - Mandal

Totally calm and warm. Ocean like a mirror passing Lindesnes (South Cape). Stopped for a swim midway. Had an unfortunate grounding just west of Lindesnes, underwater rock not marked on our (old) chart plotter.
