Weather forecast was the same as when we sailed with Albert.
This time I went out with Maciek. To avoid drama I put one reef in the sail - we could see further up Vätösund that it blows properly there.
Launching went well so we ghosted North in weak wind, waiting to come out closer to Vätobron.

Well, as the time went and we were getting (slowly) closer to the bridge the wind died entirely. We shake the reef and continue but apart from a few wind-puffs it became dead-calm.

We turned back to the harbor, sailing with the weak wind. As we were getting closer it started to stiffen somewhat so the ride was nice. Dark clouds were moving from the South closer to us.
I wanted to enter on sails but as we were entering the slip (with half-wind) it changed direction and started to blow really properly.
Too tight there to maneuver for spilling wind so I steered out into open water. We dropped sail and entered on engine.

This time we removed the engine before retrieval. But it went skewed anyway, a bit better but still bad. I suspect that it´s back rollers which are too high or too tight and they grab on one of strakes when the boat rolls onto the trailer.

Back home we lifted her up in the shed. I could also assess damaged to the keel plank.
Some bosun work needs to be done: fix the dink and adjust the trailer so she rides straight when retrieved.
