2024 MAY DAY 1 BERGEN TO OSLO TRIP. PART 3 FROM OS TO SÆVAREID

[@johningham4942]

It was a lovely trip Lars despite the low clouds and wet weather but nearly perfect sea state for your near perfect trip. The new boat is very similar to the Marex boats you've had previously extremely sea worthy and I will look forward to seeing more trips in the future showing more of the lovely country you live in.

Thx John, had been nice with less clouds. Even more beautiful than. The Skilsø is more like the Marex than the Targa. Much more holiday friendly than the Targa. But Targe is faster and handles the sea a little better. But Skilsø is also a great in the sea. But on this trip we had little sea. Very lucky:)

@grindene yes you were very lucky with the sea state on the three different days, I am pleased that you are finding the new boat easy to handle. When I first saw her I thought she looked like a marex but this is a make I had never heard of before you told us what it was. Anyway stay safe on the water next season as winter is fast approaching now and that will stop those with smaller boats from venturing out Lars. 👍🙏

@@johningham4942 its a smaller Norwegian brand. But they have been around for a long time and make great boats. And with the weak nok they att cheap compared to boats like Targa for us. So far a mild start to winter. Last year the snow came in October and stayed, but not this year. I always bring a dingy as safety😄 And how is it with your boat plans?

[@johningham4942]

@grindene I've had a nightmare of a year with my health but things are looking good now. I wanted to go to the Scilly Isles (off Lands End, England) this summer but unfortunately it never happened maybe next year.

@@johningham4942 sorry to hear that, but glad things look better now. Hope you can do your boat dreams next season.
