9 June 2018. Læsø to Vinga (Sweden)

Not as sunny but still warm and with light wind. Today the morning dip was taken with foot protection - for me cheapo not-crocs and for Pam fins (which comically hampered her entry and exit on the shallow-sloping beach). The reason was a warning of the possible presence of scorpion-fish, which lie hidden on the bottom. Stepping on one can result in a painful sting described as "bee sting x 10".

Rather a slow passage. However it crossed the main ship route into the Baltic, so we were kept busy watching for ships and avoiding one.

Anchored at Vinga.


Vinga has a very distinctive daymark and lighthouse


Also a small harbour (seemed full - we were anchored in the next bay) and pilot station, of which no sign of activity.
