Crazy trip

Me and some friends drove a Osprey Seaharrier Max 7,4m with a Yamaha 225 VMAX from Zeebrugge, Belgium to Halmstad, Sweden, in total 560 nautical miles in 20 hours ex fueling and the kiel canal, it was a hard trip, North sea pretty calm but Kattegatt was around 24-26 knots wind with waves around 2-4m.
We couldn`t sit for a couple of days, here is some pics from the trip.

Regards

Petrov

Actually it was`nt cold, vice verse, really warm i drove all the way and the guy to the right of one of the pics was navigator, i was svetting soo much, but it was to cold to have less clothes and in Kattegatt it was to wet to not use the sailing clothes, 2-4m waves in 35-40 knots is wet, i promise, ha ha.

Sorry charles

If i was english i could propably spell the word, we were sponsored of a swedish manufacturer of sailing clothes (Pelle Petterson) and it was`nt breathable so you got very svetty, svety, swetty, swety, or how you spell it, ha ha.
I think you know what i mean.

Thank`s anyway, "better to learn one thing every day than nothing els"

Is that an ashtray in the first picture?

Is this an optional extra?
