East of Sweden: Pushing for a long day [4]

- After finding rest and relaxation in a little hut, it was time for a longer day. The weather forecast predicted wind shifting to the North. If I could reach the North shore of the island where Stockholm is at, my general direction would be east, so I could still move on afterwards. So, the further North I would get, the easier I would have it for the days after.
The wind would first be in the West, then die down, then turn North. If the wind died, it would be fine to paddle further North. There was a stretch of relatively open water ahead of me, so I wouldn't mind corssing that with zero wind!
To find camping places and shelters, a great collection via google maps can be found at:

The location of the shelter map sites seem to be changed a lot, so you can google "shelter map Sweden" as well to find good locations (or use your eyes ;)

Beautiful video again ❗
Thank you ❗🌟
Nice serene spot you found there. Thanks for sharing.............⛵⛵⛵🛶
Beautiful atmosphere, scary to put drone out, but I practiced
@@Canoesailor I thought you did well with the drone. 👍...............⛵⛵⛵
@@jamessandman3708 yes it was fun to do, then catch the drone in the hand, from the canoe :)))
Nice! If you return to Sweden an choose northern part of lake Vänern I will do my very best to see to that U will not reach any shore with no beers in sight.😊
Yes, traveling without beer is too tough! Even if not chilled ;)
The many islands twist the wind around so in combination with squalls it' hard to predict wind speed and direction, you did well to get over, I guess the paddles help?
Yes I spent some hours paddling. Paddle sailing too! It turned out to be the right decision, but next day was baaad, exhausted...
