Ep 399 | DODGY BEER, REVIEW and the OLDEST city in Holland, European Vacation
We kick off this episode in the middle of a freezing Dutch week with snow on the decks and fog on the canals. Magnus tries another beer and gives a very honest review of a triple that comes with a 900‑year heritage. From stainless steel aromas to coriander syrup surprises, it’s a tasting that doesn’...
Ep 398 | DODGING SHIPS and Our First Belgian Beer Review, European Vacation
Sailing through South Holland turns into a full‑blown game of dodging ships, timing bridge openings, and navigating closures that stop us in our tracks. After threading our way through one of Europe’s busiest river intersections, we finally hit a dead end: a bridge closed indefinitely. So… back we g...
Ep 397 | LOCKS, LAKES and Winter Days, The Netherlands, European Vacation
Winter on the Dutch waterways has its own kind of magic. In this episode we wander through the historic streets of Middelburg, then slip back into the quiet lake and canal system where the world feels still and the traffic disappears. There is no one around. It’s winter and everything is calm on the...

The 2nd of September 2024, I woke up in Gilleleje, Danmark to the sound of chirping swallows flying back and forth. I am Malmö bound, Leaving Denmark, heading for Sweden again. It's a sunny day and whilst cruising along the Danish and Swedish coast, we explore some beautiful horizons and surrou...
Really? Did I fool my viewers? s5/e04
We already had some summer days during this trip on the West Coast of Sweden, and in this video we say "Plus one". The moment Lady Liselot heads out on the Kattegat, she starts dancing, so I 'tack' and search for protection to drop anchor, which I find near the island Vendelsö. ...

Solo boating in West Sweden with stunning go-throughs, p17/35; s4/e41
A tour of just a couple of hours gives so much footage, that I already produced a couple of video's out of it, and still have left out a lot. Join me when I enjoy the many go-throughs the Archipelago has. And every time I pass these villages I think: "how do these people earn their money?&...

Solo boating in Sweden, p15b/35; Look what I found! ; s4/e39
A rainy, windy day in the Archipelago of Gothenburg gives me the opportunity to drive Lady Liselot through some narrow go-throughs. And then, when I just passed the Swedish village Rönnäng, something catches my eye. This is not happening. Look what I found! EASIEST WAY TO SUPPORT ME? 1. Subscribe ...
Solo boating to Sweden, p15a/35.Sweden waterways are different. Will it fit? S4/38
Enough said of the lost footage. The Video Management System is up and running AND recording again, so we are back in business. ;-) the footage is shot on a rainy day and I am happy that I can stay in the comfortable wheelhouse of my trawler and still use the PTZ cams to shoot footage so I can share...

We know that the Göta leads to Gothenburg, but I found another river that leads to Gothenburg too! And whilst cruising that river, I have no idea what I face.

Swedish Ferries (seem to) Go Criss Cross. P12/35. s4/e35
After I checked out just a little of this big city Gothenburg, I left the Gasthamn marina and headed North to explore more of the Gothenburg Archipelago. First we had to pass the Industrial area and guess what. The moment I see things, stories pop up. After a cruise of just two hours I want to exper...
G O T H E N B U R G, SWEDEN!; s4/e34
Today, well in this video, I leave my anchorspot near the island Öckerö in Sweden and head for Gothenburg. Via Gothenburg you can go inland or you stick to the west coast and explore... the Gothenburg Archipelago. That's what we will do in the next episodes, but first let go to Gothenburg. EAS...
Solo boating to Sweden. P10/35. Boating in Sweden triggers all my senses; s4/e33
4 days of storm kept me on the Danish isle Anholt. I knew the storm was coming beforehand, so I was in a safe place. But 4 days in a marina is more than enough, so I wanted to leave. The area around Anholt is very shallow causing a nasty seastate as I leave and it took me a couple of hours before I...
Solo Sailing to Sweden. P9/35. Enroute I had to decide what to do; s4/e32

Bound for Sweden. P8/35. What would Dutchies do in this situation? s4/e31
From an anchorspot to a marina. Yes, it's true. You will not see mee in a marina. I prefer the loneliness of being on anchor. But, for the next days there are some predictions of a strong breeze, so I decided to go to a marina. Since the distance is at least 55Nm, I start early. After a couple ...
Bound for Sweden. P7. Is A Rally Cross Handbrake Turn Possible With My Trawler?; s4/e30
The word 'sea' in East Sea gives the impression about an enormous amount of water. In some cases that's true. In some not. Some parts of this sea are 30+ meters deep and it cost hours to cross and some parts are buoyed because on both side of that buoyed canal the water level does ev...
Bound for Sweden. P6. Cold-blooded vs Stressful. Thrusters Do Not Work In The Holtenau Locks; s4/e29
Since I arrived in Germany via the Eider river, I enter the Nord-Ostsee Canal, or Kieler Canal half way at Gieselau. People complain about the boringness of this canal, but because this is the first time for me, there is enough to see. The journey seems to go smooth overall until I found out that th...
Bound for Sweden. Police asks permission to come aboard; s4/e28
From the Nordfeld Locks to the Gieselau Locks in Germany runs the River Eider. Despite the fact that the scenery of this river looks a lot like the river Maas in the Netherlands, there are hardly any boats and for sure no Barges on this river. Just a couple of hours after I dropped anchor on the Eid...
