The solar arch project is the biggest upgrade that we have done on the boat so far and also one of the most visible so the design and look is just as important as the functionality this whole episode is about the design and how it fit on the boat. In the previous episodes we have seen the idea come to life first just with measurements and then we could se it grow almost like a seed that becomes a plant and today it’s fitted on our boat. The next episode will be about the invisible but necessary work of drawing all the cables and not only mount the panels but also connecting them. We mentioned that we have ordered some extra features and we are going to show you all of them and also go trough all the costs for this project that is actually still ongoing so you have to wait a little bit for that.
We are a middle aged couple that has left our hectic business lives to go sailing with our boat Fridá af Wisby and our cat Litza. Our goal is not to go to a specific place but to reach a state of mind where we can really enjoy life.
The sailing in our home water the Baltic Sea is part of our preparation to sail to the Mediterranean Sea.
Anders has been at the sea most of his life and sailed for the Swedish national dingy sailing team as a young man. Gitte has also grown up with boat and spent every summer sailing with her father as a teenager but made a pause of about 15 years without sailing as an adult, had just begun to pick-up the interest before she meet Anders a 4 years ago. Onboard we also have our cat Litza a 3 year old Devon Rex we call her the cattain because cats always decide over their humans.
Litza is a Devon Rex cat and she is the real cattain aboard.
Fridá af Wisby is a Wauquiez 47 pilot saloon that we Gitte and Anders bought in UK in 2019 and that we have sailed to Gotland and in season 1 2020 we sail in the Baltic Sea and then south to the Algarve coast.

Sailing Frida af Wisby
This is a sailing and travel channel by a Swedish middle aged couple Anders and Gitte that quit working life enjoy life as sailors where plans is written in sand. Our Devon Rex cat Litza is part of the crew. We will show our life onboard, maintenance and project work on the boat, Gitte share some recipes and show cooking onboard, a lot of sailing and places we visit along the way. We sail a Wauquiez 47 Pilot Saloon from 2006 that we bought in Yarmouth in UK in 2019 and sailed home to Gotland in Sweden in the spring 2020. In August 2020 we began sailing south and we got to Dieppe in Normandy France before the winter. In 2021 we sailed the Atlantic coast of Europe to Lagos in Portugal. The plan for 2022 is to first sail to the Atlantic islands Madeira and Azores and then back to Lagos before we sailed into the Mediterranean Sea. We hope we can inspire You!
