This year the winter was mild and the month of April was
really warm. Last year we were forced to move our boat station some miles
further to
Tyynilahti (Calm bay), which was still in ice at the end of April. But on May
Day we could get the boat from its winter location. Although, this time it was
the last with this boat, as a day later we received a new (used) boat. With Silver Colibri
and 20 hp Yamaha we are able to move more swiftly to the island, even on a more
rough weather. At Kuikanpesa everything was OK, the platform was in good condition and the batteries with the solar system where charged. The leaves were quickly removed from the main premises. The water level was record high, but it should correct itself within the month. |

Tyynilahti is sitll with ice on April 27th |
The water is all over, even the drive way is flooded |
The red squeare on left is our place, the small square, where the boat was during the winter. |
The last pictures of the boat. |
Well sreved but not so comfortable in windy conditions. |
A bit excited as we wait for the new boat. |
But this duo should handle it :) |
OK, at the island in in full speed. |
The White Wagtail was following us and indeed it had its nest in the cottage structures. |
It wayted a long time for us to go away and now we are thinking about isolating the nest from our cats. |
Leaves are almost all gone. |
The terass is also cleaned and the cottage season can sooon begin. |
No wonder Jari has his feetin the air. |
The new boat is in the picture. |
The things are still easy to move from the boat. |
Looks verra nice. |
Like the Skipper has been all his life here ;) |
