Feel the Baltic Winds | Close-Hauled Adventure at 59°N | Ep 120

⛵️ This episode is all about the sailing. The day after Jeanette’s birthday Sail & Doxie https://www.youtube.com/@UCg3j6Cp-_RTS4JABFtgBDxA left the anchorage and we headed out at sea as well. Still haven’t decided if we will be at the same anchorage as Sail & Doxie or not for the next night. They are by the way sailing to the Meds and we are heading to Scotland this season. It’s a beautiful summer day, we take up the anchor, set sail, and then the rain came, and then some wind. Next day couple of days we will get are fair bit of winds as we are on a high reach in good winds constantly 20 knots gusting a bit over 30, it’s good sailing and we feel we need to push a bit to reach the island of Öland for our Midsummer celebration. We’re day sailing and each evening we tuck into a sheltered anchorage for a few hours of rest before setting off again at first light. Along the way we sail past the deepest point in the Baltic Sea, you’d never guess the depth? Join us for this wet, windy, and unforgettable stretch of Baltic sailing. During the sailing season we are filming lots, but editing will be saved for rainy days or winter downtime—so episodes will come out a bit less regularly. 📸 For real-time updates, follow us on Instagram: @bushpointsailing ⚓️ Thanks for watching, and welcome aboard! ⛵️ Welcome aboard Bushpoint Sailing!
