I do my best to categorize all the different posts. In fact it is quite simple as long as I avoid the human error factor.
Here you will find the posts I uploaded while we were sailing with our 1wheelfloatinglady, a ’77 Nautor 43 Swan, one of the 21 motorsailing vessels Nautor Swan build.
We changed that just a bit. Since november 2024 we are living on a motorboat. A Vripack Searocco 1500.

It takes a lot of energy, not to mention money, but we’re getting there, slowly.
Navigational systems are almost working like I want them to work. Fishfinder is ok, plotters and camera’s are ok. We’re still busy with one of the three bilgealarms and there’s an annoying interference on the vhf.
So, only about three hundred other things left 😉
So i had my first introduction-lesson this week at the local shooting club. But that’s not the only target I have in mind at this moment.
We have so many things to do on our list I would’nt know were to start telling you.
Did I already told you about my first introduction-lesson at the local shooting club?
Have you ever been in an engineroom wondering where a strange noise comes from. The filters? Do they rinse themselves? No that’s not possible. Is there something in the daytank running? No that’s not possible. So what is it?
Aaaaah it’s our Femke playing on the dashboard with the bilgepump button. And I’m pretty sure I saw her smiling whilest running away!
I’m not giving up on this. I can do it. It just takes some time and patience. Take a deep breath and whooosha.
Meow, leave me alone you lazy landlubbers. Go scrub the deck and raise the anchor. Do I have to do everything here myself? On the double or I’ll keelhaul you all!
We finally got our Ais-name changed. Now you can find us on Marinetraffic or Vesselfinder. If not by name you can use our MMSI number, 244690447, that should always work. At the moment I’m trying to delete some old and wrong pictures. This will probably take a while.
There still some issues going on. De generator is running hot and we need some more changes to optimize the electric system. Some things are already fixed, but i just hate poorly loading alternators and lousy installations. The fishfinder doesn’t give a correct picture and we’re planning an extra plotter on the flydeck. We surely need better ventilation inside so we’re working on that and are still thinking about the best solution to reduce our water consumption.
And like always a thousand little things more. But I’m sure our Aegir is ready to sail out in May.
The only question is whether I’m fit enough to go.
For sure this is the most terrible card I ever made. I love it, I’m really proud of myself 🙂
It’s a Sunday thing I believe. And I’m still wondering how I took the picture. Probably one of my special skills.
