At the blog side the stories start from year 2016, as in the stories.
Reading texts in chronological order may be more logical, but the order of course depends on the reader.
Here is few stories from the early years to begin with:
Here you also find a great story of the sailing from Hamburg to Finland.
Paints removed
No surprises found in the cleaned area.
All paint and filler stuff is now removed, down until the keel bend. That means that the keel itself is only left with the old paint etc. Maybe I’ll clean that part next spring, qho knows.
Spring job
Again the time of year when time runs out and spring is somehow suprisingly already here. Quite standard jobs to do this spring, paint removal, sanding, painting and varnishing.
Ariadne engine running
OM636
Ariadne OM636 ran for the first time in the last week of the summer vacation after all the setbacks.

OM636 moving to garage
The engine went into the trailer when Ariadne was lifted and ended up in Inkoo. Before moving it to the garage, I washed it with a pressure washer because it had accumulated so much dirt over the decades.

Almost ready
Mainly just messing around
This year’s Ariadne’s summer story is mostly about getting ready to sail, you only get to sail at the end, so if that’s all you’re interested in, you should go to chapter On the move.

Loma loma loma
Elisaari 21.7.
The departure date was tentatively set for the end of the first holiday week, i.e. around the 15th and 16th.
Spring 2021
What do I find from here?
The renovation started already in the fall of 2020 when I went through 5 meters of the lower part of the keel.

Autopilot for Ariadne
Autopilotti työpöydällä
Ariadne needs autopilot. When sailing alone, the rudder cannot be left free for a long time so the autopilot has been on thoughts.
