Day 18: Rounakari – Santakari
Another good sailing/ paddling day!! Southwinds continued and we zoomed along nicely. Maybe not so much energy to play too much.. but we were sble to travel along another 50 km’s with a smile on our faces. This time got some nice pictures and video with the gopro camera mounted on the kayak.
The sun dissappeared halfway thru the day but this didnt dampen our spirits.
Santakari is a nice sandy spit of sn island some 7 km south if Pori. Odd slatelike rocks and wildstrawberries dot the ground. A place for another visit at another time!
Day 17: Vähä Hylkimys – Rounakari
The best paddling/sailing day of the trip thusfar!!!
Sunny. Southwinds 6-8m/s all day long. We made good time too!
Travelled some 50 km’s, practically from Uusikaupunki to Rauma. Sailing now with the full sail was pleasant if not fun! Wave heights were between 20- 60 cm range and on a couple occasions we played around a bit by surfing in the following seas.
Day 16: Hauluoto – Hakkeenpää – Vähä Hylkimys
The day started beatifully. Winds had cslmed a bit and no sign of rain! Also we hot an iffer for sauna and lunch from one if Marko’s friends at Hakkeenpää. So after breakfast we zoomed to Hakkeenpää.
After a very refreshing sauna and a filling lunch we continued zoomin north past Taivassalo. The wind was weak but the direction helped us along very nicely! After almost 50 km we stopped st Vähä Hylkimys for the night. Located west ftom Uusikaupunki.
