Sailing
Up

 

Sailing is one of our biggest spare time occupatios. We love to cruise around the islands, but we do also enjoy a hard fight around the boys.

The family's sailingboat is an Albin Express #780 and is named Blues. We bought it in1996, and since then Marianne has become quite a good sailor. The boat is stationed at Björlanda Kiles harbour just north of Gothenburg. Nice evening breeze outside Björlanda, Summer of 97.

Skaboholmen summer of 97.

The boat is used for both crusing and racing. We race on thursday evenings in Björlanda Kile, and occationally we participate in the Westcoast cup. It's a lot of fun, but sometimes, getting a baby-sitter for Celina ruins our ambitions. Crab fishing is a popular recreational activity.
