Just home after visiting the boat show in Stockholm

A perfect day to visit the boat show in Stockholm. Friday afternoon and
most people seem to prioritize other things. I am sure that tomorrow and
The day after tomorrow will be quite different. There was a lot of
boats and they were very large boats over 32 feet, and most were motor boats.
My focus was on small sailboats and I studied the rigging and the
sails details carefully. I learned how to apply sail "travare" instead of use the sailroap in the slot. I have a plan how to set the sail easier when I'm sailing single and to haule the sail with a roap in the slot doesn't work if you want to do it from the cockpit. A great day with much inspiration and a lot of new ideas. I'm really looking forward to the next sailing season.
