Wooden Boat Plans And Kits
We arrived in Mandal on the 18th July after an idyllic and fast passage over from the east coast of England.

Adjacent to the marina was an enormous orange buoy ... its size suggested it was important and should be respected ...

From Mandal we sailed east to the horse shoe shaped island of Udvar. Well sheltered, remote and beautiful, we moored alongside a wooden jetty and enjoyed a clamber ashore, a Cobb bbq and a glass of whisky with our next door neighbours.

From Udvar we sailed an hour or so along the coast to a popular local secret anchorage, between the islands of Helgoya and Kapelloya. In reality it wasnt so secret! This was our first experience of mooring alongside rock, but once we got over the mental problem of taking the good ship so close to something so hard it was surprisingly straightforward. Uber fender was great to have and the locals were visibly impressed by the size of fender compared to the size of the boat !

Kristiansand Marina was very busy but after a little to-ing and fro-ing we found a great spot to moor up.
