Stay tuned for regular updates! Wishing you a fantastic new year. #boatlife #bootwork #workhard #progress #newyear #merenpoort #merenpoort970 #AlbinVega #akkasailing

Because of the chilly and wet weather, we did no boatwork this week. Instead, we took the cozy route by decorating the Christmas tree. 🎄Plus, we got our AKKA shirts! Swipe left to see the sparkle on our tree and our new shirts. Stay warm and snug, everyone! #ChristmasTree #AKKAShirts #shirts ❄👕🎅🏼 #sailingakka #sailinginstagram #nextproject #sailinglife #newshirt #akka

Just received some fresh parts for our Albin Vega

Just received some fresh parts for our Albin Vega and Merenpoort! 📦 For the Albin Vega, we're replacing the old cockpit bench covers with these newly milled plywood ones. 🔧 Over the next while, we'll be getting them shipshape for the next sailing season! 🛠️ For the Merenpoort, along with our new second-hand engine, we've also got our new Propeller as part of the engine. In the coming weeks, we'll be getting that engine prepped and ready to mount. 🧰 Stay tuned for more updates on our #nextproject. 🌊 #sailingakka #albinvega #albinvega27 #Merenpoort #Merenpoort970 #boatprojects #boatworks

Sailing from Sneek via Stavoren, Makkum, Harlingen to Vlieland.... Don't ask. something with the weather to do this in 4 days.
Bridge issues due to the heat and heavy wind and thunder storm warnings. At first we wanted to Texel but ended in Vlieland.
