Z12-24: Passage Norway ->Scotland (365 mijl)

On the first day we will sail from Stavanger to one of the Norwegian islands. This will allow everyone to get used to the ship and the sea, and it also provides us time to see a bit of Norway. We then have a distance of about 240 miles to sail to the Norwegian coast. With good weather conditions, about two days non-stop, but it may take longer or shorter, depending on the weather.

We will sail with a 3-watch system, 3 hours on and 6 hours off. In this way, you’ll get your rest, and it allows you to run a proper watch, also in colder conditions.

The destination will be determined by the weather, but the plan is to sail to Stonehaven and then spend a day in port to recuperate and see some of the surrounding country, including a nice walk to the ruins of Dunnottar castle (there is a cosy pub) .

This is followed by a leg along the Scottish coast to Edinburgh, also a night’s passage. From the marina, we can easily take the train to Edinburgh’s old town. If there is still time left, we could climb ‘Arthur’s Seat’ with great views over the city and the ‘Firth of Forth’ , after which we will finish the sailing voyage in a cosy restaurant.

In short, a nice passage with lots of sailing, steering and with beautiful sun and moon rises/ sets. With a bit of luck we can enjoy beautiful starry skies and / or a luminous sea and dolphins. This sailing voyage is a nice combination of making miles, sailing through the night, but also with a bit of time ashore to enjoy and to recover and nice weather (according to plan).

The sailing distances are between 15 and 280 miles.
The above schedule is subject to weather, wind and tide.

The ‘board cash’ is the amount per person for the food and drink on board (including crew), as well as fuel, water, shore, port fees and taxes, but excluding trips, food and drinks ashore. This amount must be paid upon embarkation in cash to the skipper (in the appropriate currency). What remains after the sailing holiday, will be refunded.

With less than 3 participants, the ‘board cash’ is usually not sufficient. In that case, there will be a surcharge of up to € 50 per person.
