Full disclosure: I am not a map-maker. I know there are plenty of clever folks out there using Google Earth, KMZ files and AIS updates to make stunning, hi-res images with step-by-step passage details. Well, I am not one of them. But the above Google Map will give a broad outline of my summer travels. Starting at Oregrund in the upper left of the map, we traveled down to Grisslehamn, across the Mariehamn, then eastwards to Talinn and Helsinki. The Finnish capital was our ‘weather mark’, before we headed back whence we’d come, taking a more northerly route to allow a stop in Turku before heading back to Mariehamn, then across the Baltic to Blido, Nortallje and home to Oregrund. The noforeignland site is useful for sailors but unless you insert a series of detailed waypoints, it’s map function does give the impression of sailing across dry land. Obviously that’s not the case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
