Great weekend off the Swedish westcoast (pics)!
      #1854787 - 11/05/2008 19:57

Amazing weather considering my longitude and time of year!

We had a great weekend, sunny, weak wind and 25 degrees mid-day. I even managed to take a bath on a perfectly still beach together with my 5 year old kid.
Not to mention the 40nm, open and flat sea, 26 knot ride back home...thats just what keeps me hanging in there and planning for the next boat....whatever happens to the cost of diesel.

A few pics fore you guys (sorry they are cell phone made), we are at Leaso in Kattegat off the Swedish west coast (or east if your reference is Denmark).

The harbour, taking a walk across the island, checking out the golf scene and cruising back.

I hope you enjoy!

I am impressed they can afford to park their boats on mirrors.

Nice Pics.

I think you mean latitude (how far north you are) don't you rather than longitude...
