In July / August - the Small Boat Club is having it's annual Baltic meet and idea is to meet up on the Alands Island of Eckero. This is to the east of the main way into Gulf of Bothnia.
Before and after the meet - my plan is to circle central Baltic anti-clockwise over a 15 - 20 day period..... as follows :

Proposed route that I intend to follow July – August this year. Hoping that an anti-clockwise circuit will allow us to enjoy least into-wind days.
Early July 16 depart Ventspils to Saaremaa – Kuressaare 58 14.5N 022 28.4E
17th depart Kuressaare to Virtsu (Estonia) 58 34.5N 023 30.65E
18th depart Virtsu to Lehtma (Hiumaa) 59 04.1N 022 42.0E
19th depart Lehtma
20th arrive Hanko (Finland) 59 49.2N 022 58.3E
21 - 22 depart Hanko
wander through Alands to Eckero arr Karinsund 24th ----- this is not set yet as Gulkrona is possibly closed. 60 05N 022 05E.
But it’s hoped that we follow recc’d route to either Gulkrona or STENSKAR just to the south,
from there through to KOKAR …. Probably 59 57N 020 55E,
then maybe RODHAMN or straight to KARINSUND at 60 14N 019 32E
25th depart for Arholma 59 51.9N 019 08.7E
then it's via
Blido 59 36.7N 018 52.5E,
Gallno 59 24.47N 018 38.52E,
to Sandhamn and then to Gotland - Farosund, Ventspils arriving back about 2 - 3 August.
