Blur Sailing – Why I wish I could speak Swedish

I wish I spoke Swedish. Why? Well then I would understand the Blur Sailing Blog. It's a great blog, full of great videos and sailing photos. Only problem is that I don't speak a damn word of Swedish so I haven't a clue what they are blogging about. Here is what I can figure out:

  • The blog (I think) is run by a guy called Peter who races a J109 in Sweden. And from what I can tell he knows what he is doing
  • The crew look like Vikings and have some damn cool sailing gear.
  • Sweden is a gorgeous place to sail.
  • The have a very good sailing blog. Really nice design and full of great stuff. Much more carefully thought out than my blog. Just check out the sailing photos. Bee-oo-tee-full
  • For the more technical folks, he has specs and polars for a bunch of boats. I used to think that was nerdy but after a couple of seasons racing I am impressed. So I guess, I am now nerdy!
  • They also have a Youtube Channel which has some very cool sailing videos. Like the one below which is their season wrap-up. Well-worth sitting back and enjoying with a cold one in hand.

Hey Peter from Blur Sailing, please tell us more about you.
