The return trip to the Netherlands takes a special turn halfway through. Never a dull moment as a long distance sailor ☺️. Now, sailing back from Sweden is always a challenge because of finding a good weather hole with prevailing winds from the...
We are having a wonderful 11 day vacation with our daughters on the west coast of Sweden. How lucky we are with the weather 😃. Lots of sunshine, regular fine winds for sailing short stretches, almost no rain and no...
The rebuilding of the entrance will eventually take 3.5 weeks. During that time we are moored at the yard and just working ourselves. In the evenings we occasionally go out for dinner in Henän or Ellös, or we...
We have been docked at Adams Boat Care for 2 weeks now for the remodeling of the entrance. That is still quite a job. Carl had previously mentioned about 6 days, we were already taking into account 2 weeks and it...
We are back in Sweden for the last part of the refit at Adams Boat Care. For a new entrance we replaced the two separate hatches by one retractable hatch. The materials for this were delivered a few weeks ago...
The rest of the spring in Bruinisse flies by. Toine goes to the office regularly but I still work completely from 'home'. Fortunately that goes fine on the boat ☺️. Although it will probably be good for me to have a break after the...
From Wednesday morning until Friday afternoon we will be on the shore at Van Ast in Brouwershaven for the big spring cleaning. We can just live on the boat, with a ladder accessible 😃. Of course, we've been to the shore many times before,...

We have been living on the boat for 9 weeks now and we like it very much. It feels very natural, like it has been a long time since we lived in a house ☺️. The weeks in Dordrecht fly by. With working at home, off...
The first week we live on the boat we experience severe winter conditions with a big layer of snow and temperatures between -3 C during the day and -10 C at night. We are happy with it, it's...
This picture has Eline gemaakt👌👌. The SeaQuest is the boat with the lights.
It will take us 12 days to sail back from Sweden to Dordrecht. That will be our accommodation for the coming winter. Two weeks on the way home and from the beginning also at home. The boat really feels at home already...
This is the last part of the refit in Sweden this autumn. After 12 weeks of staying in Sweden it has come to an end. The house is cleared, the boat is cleared, ready to go back to the Netherlands...
Again 3 weeks have passed and now we 'live' already 10 weeks in Sweden. The end is in sight. According to Carl the boat will go into the water next week and we can go there again at the end of the week...
We are 3 weeks further and already 7 weeks we 'live' in Sweden. The last 3 weeks the progress of the renovation is very good 😊. See also Refit Sweden. We are already in a constructive phase and...
