From Björkskär we head off in company in fresh northerlies beating towards Stora Nassa. Sunny and blowy... that's what we like.
We have a bit of trouble with the halyard when we hoisted sail so we end up playing catch up, but they have a quicker boat so we are forcrd to work on our pointing to keep up.
When we get there there are boats all over and we motor round... checking out a sheltered lagoon we'd picked out on the chart. Taken.
So finally we settle on nice sheltered cobb just west of the main sound. High cliffs and deep close in.
It proved not to be quite as good as we had hoped. As the wind got up it came round the bluff not giving as much lee as it promised. But enough at least.
The following day is still blowy and we set springs to offload the mooring lines. A quiet day with a book before a quiet night in in good company.
