Svendborg - last stop before Germany (18/8-10)

Hi there everybody following us - we're pleased, and thanks for feedback on comments, SMS and phone! :-)
Finn, Christian, Bent and I (Kjell Arne) arrived at Svendborg 16:15 this evening after close to 6 hours of head on wind with iron-genoa (some people name it running by motor... ;-) from our successful 33 hours stay at Omø.

Strong wind and rain was uncomfortable in the eyes

 This day was also kind of wet and windy, and the fresh fish we was donated made a perfect dinner this evening. The approach into Svendborg today was very much like the Norwegian Blindleia or similar to some of the classic places on the Swedish Bohuslän coastline:

I really have to express our great confidence to having Bent as our skipper. He is very focused, security minded and even noticing small details which need to be corrected before it makes any interference with our sailing. We're really having a good time everybody here on Zephyr!
Start: Omø, 10:37
End: Svendborg, 16:15
Distance: 26,7 nm
Average speed: 4,8 knots

PS: It's a kind of strange this post. There is absolutely NO wireless connection in Svendborg Harbor.  I took my iPhone, asked for wireless connections, and walked up in the city now in the middle of the night.  When approacing the "Pistolstrædet" connecting the main walking street, I found the open wireless connection named "Fullrate" and sat down here on the street and posted todays blog. (Thank you pal, for borrowing bandwith on your "Fullrate" wireless server! ;-)
To all  our followers: Be prepared to wait a couple of days or more, if we're sleeping in a no-wireless area, or simply sailing non-stop for a couple of days.
