75 Kids on the water
2012-08-21/22
Stege skole, Hjertebjerg skole and Fanefjordskole merged and 75 kids found new school companions. It was a chore for the teachers to smooth a long standing "feud" into empathy, or even new friendships.
What better way then to have a collaboration to vanquish the elements water and wind on Stege Nor. With the best weather we could have dreamed of we all enjoyed the water-sports activities, even the boys and girls who said up front that they were uneasy or even frightened of the water. Everyone had a go and enjoyed him/herself.
3 groups of about 25 kids met with us in the restaurant and set out to conquer the seas. On kayak, dinghy, catamaran and rib they set sail and had the time of their life.

Bootje erbij
2012-04-25
ff op z'n Nederlands: Het vliegt door de lucht en komt zachtjes neer in de tuin van StaySail:
De eenbootjeerbij.
Not black and yellow like a cardinal buoy, but Danish "stolen" paint grey and with an old red anti fouling a new ship has arrived in Svensmarke. Originally built in 1905 in Damsholte Beth has returned to Møn. Where she will be restored in full operating service. We do not know how yet, and how fast is a question we do not discuss.
It is an about 8.5m long Drivkvase built in 1905 in Damsholte.
She now has the terrible name of "Beth". As a working name she is called
Butch, because she has such a nice slim figure.
If all the rig is on the boat with stern and bowsprit she will be about 10m longer.
They were built for shallow water fishing on eel hence they are called ålekvase.
Use:
They were sailed against the wind (cross-tack) on the shoal with ålegras (eel
grass) and the kvase would float broadside to the wind over this grass with
the nets attached to the bowsprit and sternsprit.
The kvas has a high stability, but a low free board to get the nets(filled with grass, stones and hopefully fish) inboard at the end of fishing.
The boats used to be tar black/brown, but since the sixties when a large amount of grey paint was
stolen from the shipyard in Helsingør, kvaser in the northern Sound area turned Gray. Coincidence?
