This last week I’ve been a few times to the Helsinki Boat Show, getting bits and pieces for the boat. Today I bought my sailing suit: a jacket and tall trousers with shoulder-straps. I already have my sailing boots and gloves: all ready now to go sailing! Except that you can still stand on the sea ice where our boat is going to be moored

We went to check our newly-assigned mooring place at Merihaka sailing club. Our H-boat will be moored in front of where Eve is standing – just five minutes’ walk from our flat.

Eve & I went for a walk on the ice near Kaivopuisto: here I’m just to seaward of Harakka. It’s been a lovely day, and the lack of wind made the -15C temperatures quite comfortable.
