Sue has already published lots of pictures of Skodshoved
Havn. I should explain that this is the
Marina where Ariel spent the winter in the care of Norbjaerg’s Boat Yard. Lars and his wife are a delightful couple
pictured here outside their marine store.
I arrived Copenhagen on April 24th to put Ariel back in the
water and get her ready for the summer, there was plenty to do. The first two weeks were bitterly cold and
windy and one day it snowed. But before
Sue arrived on May 9th she was back in the water with the newly
washed sails on, the head fixed and the bimini frame repainted plus a host of
smaller items. The weather changed
overnight to brilliant sunshine and 70 degrees and then back again to wind,
rain and 40 degrees. We stayed in the
marina and did last minute shopping at the grocery store and IKEA while we
still had the rental car but the ocean called and we cast our lines off on May
18th and headed North.

| You can see lower green mark where Skovshoved Harbor is , straight above is Helsingor, and the other green mark is Gillelje Harbor. We drove there by car to look at both harbors before going out by boat. Gillelje was great for buying fish but too crowded for Ariel |
