Snowy tripp
Just arrived in Stockholm for the boatshow after 13 hour drive in the snow.
I was hoping on less snow but after few near incident I arrived at 11pm rather tired. The Nke stuff and the efoy fuelcell did not arrive before departure so I will fit them in France instead. One thing I have to remember is to move the boat back few centimeters on the trailer before I tow it next time as I had far to little presure on the front tires on the car, This was the reason for the hairy ride as the Volvo I drove was front wheel drive. No gripp and bad stearing was not great....
