A New Paradigm for Cruising

Back to The Real World of Cruising

Quiet-Cove-Norway-4

Here is a photo we have not seen since Greenland – Wind Horse anchored in a secure, beautiful, unpopulated cove. There is a gale blowing, low clouds are interspersed with rain squalls, and we are catching up on boat chores, writing, exercise, and maybe later today a movie.

The terrain surrounding this Norwegian anchorage reminds us of Labrador. Lots of granite,

with modest areas of ground cover and trees.

At one end of the cove there are four deserted houses. We are guessing these are summer residences.

It is hard to convey just how good this feels. We are going to hang out for a day or two and enjoy the quiet.

“The 83ft-long (25m) wave-piercer...could easily be mistaken for the spawn of the Royal Navy with its unpainted battleship grey, all-aluminum body. But that day, in those conditions, it was the only boat that I would have wanted to climb aboard to face the English Channel.” --Motor Boat & Yachting
