On our second leg we sail von Langeland in Denmark into the German River Schlei and afterwards to Kiel in order to head through the Kiel Canal towards the North Sea. We even stayed a few days in Kiel. But not because the city is so beautiful, but rather because there are still too many ...
Dear friends, we’ve untied the lines!! Before we left, we had stressful days full of preparations and we thank all the people, who helped us in the recent days. Without you guys, we would probably still be home in Stralsund. Even we were a bit wistful when we left, after all we leave a lot ...
Yesterday we had a several hours drive in blazing sunshine, unfortunately with a faulty AC. And for lack of sea maps in the car, we’ve planned our route to Spain (plan B …. plan Y) with the “Street Maps of Europe” atlas. Has anyone gained any sailing experience in France? We wanted to leave out ...
We had a very intense day yesterday. Getting up very early because some important things need to be done. In the end we attached the old new name, some minutes later the tractor came and took Lizzy to the huge crane. It is amazing, when a heavy boat seems to fly hanging on just two ...

The new white colour is very bright and we really needed to wear our sunglases while painting 🙂 In the next step Lizzy will receive blue pants. Stay tuned!! Nach einigen Regentagen war das Wetter gestern und heute endlich perfekt zum Lackieren ...
Today the weather was rainy and we coudn’t go on with the sanding and painting. But loads of things to do. So Dine starts improving our sails. The choosen equipment is the so called Speedy Stitcher, a hand sewing maschine. But all beginnings are difficult… Dine is not so speedy with the Speedy Stitcher. Hopefully ...
Yay, we’re still afloat! And happy to be up’n dry. Although I can’t hold up my arms anymore after all that sanding. Lizzy looks quite a bit beaten up too. But one step at a time. The hull is now our main priority and then we’ll get to the rest by and by. Bottoms up! ...
Where’s Waldo? At the moment we can’t realy imagine leaving the shore behind in just 3-4 months. Here a little insight in “Project Chaos”. We’ll keep you updated! ⛵ Wie siehts hier denn aus, wie im Wimmelbild! Noch können wir uns nicht vorstellen, in drei oder vier Monaten die Leinen loszumachen. Hier ein kleiner Blick ...
