On the 30th of January the title of Scorpio was transferred to new owners. After 23 years of messing about in a yacht all over the world including a circumnavigation and visits to about 100 countries it was time for Malla and me to move ashore and head for new challenges.

We know that the new owners will take good care of Scorpio and we hope that they will enjoy the cruising life as much as we have done. Thanks also to all of you web surfers, who have followed our adventurs on the www.

Fair winds and calm anchorages.

Does the new owner look happier than the old?

Thank you all, very much.

In September 2012, so far with 4 days still left, there have been almost 5,300 visits on our web site. This is pretty impressive, I think, for a non-commercial site, with the main objective to stay in touch with friends and relatives.

We will now be even more motivated to share our stories with you.

A Reminder

Once in a while I need to remind visitors that this blog is mostly about non-cruising related stuff. The cruising stories are found via other links from the Home Page, particularly in the Log & Yarns -section.

What to do with this Blog?

Monday, July 14th, 2008

I signed up for this blog, but I’m not sure what to do with it. Maybe just sticking to conventional web pages would have been better.
I guess the whole idea with a web is to make “discussions” (interactivity) possible, but I don’t foresee any great demand for such.
However, I’ll keep this vehicle here for a while and we’ll see.
One interesting feature may be the possibility to upload logs via the SSB radio when we are on passage and unable to reach the internet.
I could for instance write a story in the middle of the Indian Ocean also giving our exact position latitude/longitude.
