A stormy welcome

Tashi and Victoria arrived yesterday and we decided to stay in Vaxholm for another night. The forecast showed a lot of wind from the south and my spare-part for the gooseneck had not arrived anyway. So we used the time to have cake&coffee, walked about Vaxholm and visited almost every shop in town.

Great to have Victoria on board again and to see Tashi after almost 3 months. Lots of topics to tease her and so we had a great afternoon and evening.

Well, after dinner the show started. There was a 5+ Bft wind all afternoon but by 8pm it got up some more. I have not got a wind-speedo but I believe that the wind got up to 7 Bft in gusts. I regularly checked the 6 lines that I had out and had a sleepless night. All was well though and the wind has dropped down to a moderate 3-4 Bft this morning.
