Hi Scott, Thanks for the applause and the cheers.
However in my mention of the Stockholm archipelago I forgot to mention a delightful fact that, you, being from the Northwest probably already know. June 21st is mid summer in Scandinavia. I hardly gets dark. This means you the sailor can be out there plowing furrows in the waters at 11 at night with almost full daytime visibility.......... It's the northern latitude that does it. Of course, by late August darkness is closing in on the Scandinavians again - and you sail with a ski jacket handy........... which is why you see Scandinavian boat designs with fully enclosable cockpits (Vega 27 powerboat as an example). Oh, and do you like herring? The Swedes can probably prepare it in 50 or more, different ways - each delicious!
