Navigare Necesse Est! Hop on-board – Welcome to the blog Navigare necesse est, a blog about sailing and food & drink on-board. It is about cruising among all the islands of the Baltic sea and the archipelago of Stockholm especially. The archipelago around Stockholm has over 20.000 islands and islets and it is very dear to me and it is among these I have my home harbor. About me: I, Tyra the author of this blog live on a rather small island near the town Vaxholm. I have the Coastal Skipper Certificate and this Coastal Skipper Certificate is the second level of the official Swedish nautical training courses for recreational boat drivers. I love night navigation and has an in-depth knowledge of both day and night navigation, 'close to shore' as well as offshore. The Coastal Skipper Certificate is compulsory for the sailing of boats larger than 12 x 4 meters. Our boat is not that big at all but you never know one day perhaps I really need it. Although I'm sometimes the Captain of the boat and enjoys it I think I am more than willingly to spend a lot of time down in the galley. I just love to cook and bake on-board and I'm lucky I don’t get seasick below deck as many people unfortunately do, the only problem when cooking on-board is when it is leaning too much to one side and if we are going on the wrong tack.

Fy fan för polska lågtryck!

Torrential rain and near gale force wind...Oh I do have this extreme dislike of the low-pressures from Poland.


Jag vet att det inte är särskilt charmigt med svordomar men ibland behövs lite kraftigare ordalag...
..



Kraftiga vindbyar och slagregn staxt utanför Sandhamn.




30 mm nedebörd på en timme, blixt och dunder och det kan ju vara lite spännande att segla med det några timmar men sedan får det vara bra. Det värsta är ju tilläggningen i dåligt väder tycker jag...ja också vindkantringar nattetid förstås.




Ser det inte ut att bli lite ljusare ut där borta?

Nopp...

Iskallt väder på väg från Polen


Vindarna har vänt. Glöm att den utlovade värmen från Ryssland kommer hit. Nu väntas Polenkyla i hela landet. - Vi ser ingen ljusning. Blåst och regn är på väg in från Polen, säger Johan Lundgren, meteorolog SMHI.
