The card table is standard too high in relation to the seat height of the bench to sit there comfortably. Toine partly solved this problem herself at the beginning of this year by temporarily increasing the seat height of the chair and...
Refit Sweden - new bimini with sides
The bimini (sun tent) has only become an old rag 😉. It still belongs to the previous owner and needs to be replaced. Now we are in Sweden supplier Rössy can easily come by to measure a new bimini.....
Refit Sweden - new floor covering
We've had new carpets laid all over the boat. The standard colour cream from Hallberg-Rassy is just a bit darker than the previous floor covering, with a small speck of warm brown. Very nice and somewhat less contagious 😃. We...
Refit Sweden - coffeemaker
Toine's coffee machine is located in a beautiful niche in the greenhouse above the engine room.
Refit SeaQuest - part 4
Again 3 weeks have passed and now we 'live' already 10 weeks in Sweden. The end is in sight. According to Carl the boat will go into the water next week and we can go there again at the end of the week...
Refit SeaQuest part 3
We are 3 weeks further and already 7 weeks we 'live' in Sweden. The last 3 weeks the progress of the renovation is very good 😊. See also Refit Sweden. We are already in a constructive phase and...
Refit SeaQuest part 2
So, we are now three weeks further and the refit of the SeaQuest finally seems to have started 😃. How have the last three weeks gone? The first week Toine went up and down to Tilburg for three days...
Refit SeaQuest part 1
The first week in Sweden because of the refit of the SeaQuest is over. A beautiful week in which we switch in a short time from the free boat life to a working life from a nice holiday home close to the shipyard. This transition does...
Summer holiday 2020 - part 2 - round trip Zealand Denmark
The two weeks in Denmark together with the girls are wonderful. We sail around the large island of Seeland, with Copenhagen as our final destination. Denmark surprises us positively and surpasses our verwachting👍👍. From a previous visit...
Summer holiday 2020 - part 1 - Via Germany to the Baltic Sea
The final destination of the summer holiday was already determined at the beginning of this year by the appointment with Adams Boat Care on 17 August in Henån (Sweden) for the conversion of the beds. Fortunately, Denmark's borders will open in time. As a result...
Special times 😊
We just left for our summer vacation to the Baltic Sea. The first week we can take it easy without the girls. That gives me time to look back at the past two months ...
Weekends on board during Corona lockdown
Despite the crazy time now during the Corona lockdown we are on board for many weekends. That is a wonderful change after a busy week at home. We feel very privileged that we can do this 😊. Especially because the Belgians...
Onboard navigation network
The SeaQuest has a complex network for navigation equipment. This is due to the amount of devices in combination with the different ages of these devices. We prefer to renew the network only for parts where necessary, especially if...
On the boat in times of the corona virus
We have been hauled in the water on March 17th 😄. Because of the corona virus we both work at home from March 10th. So we decided to go in the water just a week earlier. Every day the situation changes, so...
Best internet connection
A good internet connection throughout the boat is probably a wish of many sailors. Like Toine 😎, me and our girls 😉. In most marinas wifi for wireless internet connection is available but the quality often is poor. And once on the way you have to switch back to 3G/4G.
