Last season my lifejacket and Binoculars got stolen out of a crate as I was taking stuff to the boat at the beginning of the season. I didn't want to be without eiter one so I replaced them.

Two seasons ago I was returning from a lovely day of sailing. It had been sunny all day and there still was a nice gentle breeze. I could hear the small waves comming of the bow.

I always take a lot of tools with me. I want to be sure to have all my tools with me (oh utopia) so at some point I bought the biggest toolchest that I could find. It has an extendable handle and a set of wheels to drag it behind you with relative ease.

I went to the boat today.

After just half an hour the last part of the old exhaust was removed. Almost an entire day to do lots of other stuff!

Not.

Here in Holland it will no longer be allowed to flush the big stuff that ends up in a toilet out of the boat. So this means it has to be taken off the boat somehow. Big dicussions are taking place on how to do this and of course, how effective a measure like this will actually be.

It is a bit of a strange feeling. I'm going to say goodbye to my beloved Iduna. Last season I had two boats but that is a bit too much trouble.

So it is time to sell the smaller one.

It leaked inside the boat...

For years it has leaked water where it could not be noticed...

The first owner mounted a scoop to increase the waterline length. The lines run very nice, it looks very good. BUT...
