Exploring Mariehamn in the Åland Islands on Sailing Vessel Arcturus
| Season 3 | Episode 42
Welcome to Season 3 of my channel!
On this episode I explore the City of Mariehamn.
I got a close as I could to the windjammer POMMERN and tried to imagine around rounding Cape Horn over and over in her years of service as a merchant vessel taking part in the great grain races.
Later I found my way to the Åland Maritime Museum and was amazed at how extensive and beautiful this museum is. You can walk through the original “Captains saloon” taken from the doomed ship Herzogin Cecilie as she was slowly sinking off the coast of devon. I was also mesmerized by their authentic pirate flag dating to the 18th century, one of only two original skull & crossbones pirate flags still in existence in the world.
Making my back to Arcturus I find Neil has been on “Anchor Watch” all morning as the winds picked up and threatened to break our mooring line, eventually we made a plan and moved the boat down to a safer slip.
This season will follow my time on board SV Arcturus as we explore the Åland Islands and beyond. We sail into cities, tie up on small islands, anchor bows to and ride out a blow before heading back to Sweden. I hope you will follow along with us on the trip.
