Read moreSince yesterday we are at our winter berth in the Knolhaven in Dordrecht. A very nice spot! The coming time we will partly live on the boat in Dordrecht and partly in our house in Tilburg. How exactly we will divide the time we don't know yet. About a week on the boat and a week in our house? It will be something like that [...]
Read moreIt 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 😃. More than our house in Tilburg where we have not been for a while. But [...]
Read moreThis 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 [...]
Read moreIn the period from 17 August to 7 November 2020, the SeaQuest is located at Adams Boat Care in Sweden for a refit aimed at living comfortably on the boat. We are closely involved in the refit throughout this period […]
Read moreThe most important part of the refit in Sweden is the conversion of the aft cabin to a center bed layout. We had the model with three beds and a bench in between. We wanted the layout with a center bed. We […]
Read moreThe layout of the cabin on the starboard side just in front of the tip with a bunk bed is actually only useful if you need more than one berth. In practice we never used the upper bunk bed and it felt like […]
Read moreThe corona situation with a lot of working from home makes us think about two good workplaces on board where we can both work undisturbed with a lot of video calls. The plan was a new workplace for Mira in the […]
Read moreBy switching to the layout with a center bed in the aft cabin, there is the possibility for a good workplace for Mira on the starboard side. Important now that we are going to live on the boat for a longer time and because of corona […]
Read moreNow that we are going to live on board for a longer period of time, we think it is important to have a good washing machine and preferably also a drying machine on board. So that we are not dependent on the facilities in marinas for this. We had such a compact Candy […]
Read moreThe card table is standard too high in relation to the seat height of the bench to sit there comfortably. Toine partly solved this problem herself at the beginning of this year by temporarily increasing the seat height of the chair and […]
Read moreThe bimini (sun tent) has only become an old rag 😉. It still belongs to the previous owner and needs to be replaced. Now we are in Sweden supplier Rössy can easily come by to measure a new bimini […]
Read moreWe've had new carpets laid all over the boat. The standard colour cream from Hallberg-Rassy is just a bit darker than the previous floor covering, with a small speck of warm brown. Very nice and somewhat less contagious 😃. We […]
Read moreToine's coffee machine is located in a beautiful niche in the greenhouse above the engine room.
Read moreAgain 3 weeks have passed and we are 'living' already for 10 weeks in Sweden. The end is in sight. According to Carl the boat will go into the water next week and we will be able to live on it again at the end of the week 😃. But whether everything will be finished so we can sail back is still to be seen. There are still a lot of open ends [...]
Read moreWe 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 [...]
Read moreSo, we are now three weeks further and the refit of the SeaQuest finally seems to have started 😃. How have the last three weeks gone? The first week Toine went up and down to Tilburg for three days [...]
Read moreThe first week in Sweden because of the refit of the SeaQuest is over. A beautiful week in which we switch in a short time from the free boat life to a working life from a nice holiday home close to the shipyard. This transition does [...]
Read moreThe two weeks in Denmark together with the girls are wonderful. We sail around the large island of Seeland, with Copenhagen as our final destination. Denmark surprises us positively and surpasses our verwachting👍👍. From a previous visit [...]
Read moreThe final destination of the summer holiday was already determined at the beginning of this year by the appointment with Adams Boat Care on 17 August in Henån (Sweden) for the conversion of the beds. Fortunately, Denmark's borders will open in time. That is why a tour through the southern Baltic Sea, especially in Denmark, [...]
