More time at sea...

...this time with More Sailing, a Swedish company organising sailing trips in the Mediterranean, across the Atlantic and in the Caribbean. I booked this trip already in early Spring this year. After my heart ache, described in my previous blog, I have now been given OK by my surgeon to participate in a scheduled three week cruise from Primosten (close to Split), Croatia to Las Palmas, Canary Islands. The total duration of the trip and actual route depends of course on the weather, but I have listed planned stops on the map below.

The boat used for this trip is a newly designed More 55, built on a recently established Swedish-Croatian owned wharf located in Croatia. "More", by the way, translates to "Sea" in the Croatian language. In Las Palmas a new crew will take over the boat int order to participate in a race across the Atlantic to St. Lucia, the annual ARC- Atlantic Rally for Cruisers.


Early Saturday morning (14 October) I will fly down to Split with my old (but still young) company Norwegian to meet up with my fellow shipmates for the first time,
