Colder this morning with a bit of drizzle and chilly wind. Got much busier as we neared Stockholm. Choppy waters, partly from the wind but mainly from all the ferries, tour boats and a cruise ship.

Sailed, tacking upwind in strong, gusty winds max 29 knots, dodging other leisure craft and a cruise ship.

Warm and humid. Not much wind and a short passage so motored.

Practically no wind on this warm and sunny morning so we motored along this morning’s short passage which was mainly a straight and wide channel. There were more boats about than we had seen in the last couple of days, mainly motor boats passing us at speed. Moored bows to rocks with stern anchor in a beautiful bay.

Quite cool in the gusty SW wind today. Grey skies throughout but no rain. Managed to sail all the way, downwind at the start then along 2 channels requiring close tacking only taking the sails in as we entered Djupfladen. Berthed bows to pontoon with stern buoy and sun finally made an appearance. ☀️

Another lovely downwind sail between the islands on this sunny day.
