A Life That Makes Sense
Our anchors and managing their deployment and retrieval are a major safety priority. Therefore, we invested in a new winch to physically handle the heavy equipment. It is manual to reduce overall complexity and minimize the need for additional installations.
It’s a kind of homecoming. Finally, we got to show her off in front of the beautiful old buildings of Copenhagen. It was a perfect day.
Chief Stewardess and special guest – front deck bosun* Ms. Anna – made a perfect team for passing the lock (Sluseholmen) and simply taking in the city.
Chiefs Stewardess dearest friend stopped by with entourage for a brief visit before we headed back through the lock.

After escorting the girls from Kalundborg to Copenhagen (previous post), we found a spot in probably the smallest club in Copenhagen. One pier – 32 members. Great people, great atmosphere, and it’s close to the Chief Stewardess’s workplace.
We were lucky to reserve a spot for the entire month of June, allowing the CRO (Chief Restoration Officer) to work on the boat and offer VIP Copenhagen harbor canal tours for friends and family as weather and schedules permit.
On a mission to escort the girls safely from Vordingborg to their new harbour in CPH.
The first day from Korsør to Vordingborg was a bumpy ride. We had to wait out strong winds in Bisserup while one of the crewmembers suffered from a bit of seasickness.
Once teamed up with the girls, we spent a bumpy night at anchor before heading north on a beautiful, sunny, perfect weather sailing day.
All in all, it took us about twelve hours.
Oh… and we were stopped by the police…
A VHF (radio) certificate is required when traveling the canals. You can easily obtain it online, but Il Capitano chose to take the classes offered by the sailing club in the hope that the material would stick a little better.
