In this video, we’re heading out on our next shakedown sailing adventure in the Swedish archipelago, testing both our sailboat and our own sailing skills before heading south towards the Mediterranean. ⛵️
We get in some proper practice — tacking (a lot!) and navigating through ever-changing weather conditions. In just three days, we experience the full range of Swedish pre-summer weather, from 20 °C and t-shirts to 6 °C and bundling up like it’s winter.☀️❄️
With the archipelago still quiet in the pre-season, we enjoy peaceful anchorages, a private island with a sauna, and a freezing cold plunge. Our skipper dog Nora seems to be settling into her new boat life so well, which makes us incredibly happy! 🐾
If you are new to our channel - welcome! 🩵 We are Linn, Erik, and our little dachshund Nora, and we’ve just finished refitting our 1980 sailboat to start our dream of sailing from Sweden to the Mediterranean.

Sail & Doxie (Linn & Erik)
In 2026, Swedish sailors Linn and Erik live full-time aboard their Beneteau Oceanis 45 on the French Riviera with their miniature dachshund, Nora.

The crew manages their own digital cruising guide business while documenting the technical realities of off-grid sailing, cross-border yacht upgrades, and extensive offshore passage making.

Paradise in Sardinia… But We’re Not Allowed Ashore?!
We sail into La Maddalena, the stunning archipelago off northern Sardinia, Italy. Turquoise anchorages, granite islands and views that are pure magic. La Maddalena is a protected national park, and the rules make it hard for us to go ashore and explore in some places. We also meet up with new Scand...
