Sailing to Scandinavia

Cruising is a unique way to travel - especially when you reach the end of the Baltic Sea. On the coast of the Bothnia lies the small town of Haparanda between Sweden and Finland the destination of this trip. On our Swedish-built yacht we sail to the end of the Baltic Sea. We face dramatic and funny experiences on our journey of more than 4000 kilometres from Hamburg to Haparanda and back. We visit hidden fishing ports and small archipelagos but also big cities like Oulu in Finland or Stockholm in Sweden. Instead of anchoring in the archipelagos we call no less than 70 ports on our journey.. This book is travel literature from the perspective aboard a yacht. The reader is accompanied by the character of Mr. Moose the friendly Scandinavian moose who likes to swim and has lots of knowledge about sailing in Scandinavia. He can't hold back with his observations and hints..
