Umeå, here we go!

Today, I was ready early but I had to wait a bit. There was a thick fog all around. When it cleared a bit (around 9:30) I set off.

It was all rather ok albeit not comfy: there was a lot of swell and little wind to help stabilise the boat. After a couple of hours of broad reach zigzagging between rocks, I arrived in more open waters. At that point, a new sea started to set in, coming from the other way and a quite big one at that. After a bit the wind died down and I was left hanging in the big waves. Fortunately that didn't last too long and the wind picked up again, right in my teeth and gusty. That didn't really help with the comfort part of it but once the wind settled a bit I was able to sail more happily toward Umeå and here I am.

There wasn't much to see and look around at first. Only low grey clouds and mist. But after the calm, there was some sunlight at the horizon and it opened up a bit as I was nearing Umeå.
