Hard Sailing Sweden's East Coast | Knockdown off Öland | Ep 121

Sailing Sweden’s East Coast in the Baltic Sea can be beautiful — and brutally hard sailing! In this episode of Bushpoint Sailing, we’re tacking into 20 to 30 knots on the nose and next day a KNOCKDOWN! Drama hits on board — and if you’ve been following us, you know that’s a rarity! As the wind builds to 45 knots just off the coast of Öland, we experience a full knockdown that reminds us who’s really in charge out here. 🌊

With shaky legs and tired smiles, we finally tie up in Borgholm, Öland, just in time for Midsummer celebrations, and meet up with our friends from Sailing Vessel Zephyros.

During the sailing season we are filming lots, but editing will be saved for rainy days or winter downtime—so episodes will come out a bit less regularly.

Welcome aboard Bushpoint Sailing! Hi from Jeanette & Fredrik 🇸🇪! We’re the couple behind Bushpoint, sailing our boat, just the two of us on Small and Big Adventures! Join us as we explore remote coastlines, wild anchorages, and beautiful sailing routes through northern Europe and beyond. In the summer of 2022 we sailed all the way to 80 degrees North, to Svalbard! 👉 In 2025, we’ll sail from the Baltic Sea and journey westward and the plan is to sail through Sweden, Denmark, Norway, the Shetland Islands, Orkney, and Scotland — a voyage full of rugged coastlines, sailing challenges, and unforgettable stories.
