1. juuni purjetus / Sailing on 1st of June

Käisime 1. juunil jälle "Ägega" sõitmas. Plaanime sel aastal kindlasti merele jõuda, nii kulub iga harjutus marjaks ära / We went to sail with "Äge" on 1st of June. As we plan to take her to sea this year, every exercise is good.

 Vahepeatus/Piknik Nõiasaare juures / Stop-picnic at the Witches Island

Tugeva ja ühest suunast puhuva tuule tõttu tuli tihti sõuda / The wind was strong and always from one direction, so we had to row quite much
.

 Priit ja Vares võtsid vahepeal mõõtu ruherallis / In the meantime Priit and Vares competed in ruherally

 Täd'Eero osales ka aga tema tuli diskvalifitseerida, kuna tal puudus ruhe / Täd'Eero also participated, but had to be disqualified because he was missing a ruhe.

 Laevameeste vanasõna: "Kui aerutajad puhkavad, rassib Vares sootidel" (Vanamõisa 19. sajand) / As sailors saying goes: "When rowers rest, the Crow works the rigging"

Kui tuul oli soodus, nauditi ilusat ilma ja mõnusat olemist / When the wind was right, everybody enjoyed the nice weather and good company

Purjetus 11. mail / Sailing on the 11th of May

Tegime esimese purjetuse sel hooajal. Mõni asi oli talvega peaaegu ununenud aga saime ilusti hakkama. Lisaks purjetamisele tegelesime kartograafiaga ja nimetasime palju maamärke Paunküla järvel.

We made our first sailing this season. Some things we had nearly forgotten during the winter but we made it work nicely. In addition to sailing we were dabbling in cartography and named many landmarks around the Paunküla lake.

Pärast tegi Priit tiiru ruhega. Arhailised ühepuupaadid tegime juba mitu aastat tagasi.

Later Priit went for a spin in ruhe- a single-log-boat. These arhaic vessels we made several years ago.

Jalajälg Gokstadi laevast / Outline of a foot from Gokstad ship

Kuulsa Gokstadi laevaleiu detailidelt leiti alles hiljuti noore viikingi jalajäljend. Gokstadi laeva oli enne selle matusesse asetamist ohtralt kasutatud. Üks kasutusjälg leiti ootamatult laevapõranda plankudelt, kuhu tundmatu meresõitja oli ilmselt igavusest kraapinud oma palja jala jäljendi. Jalg on suhteliselt väike, mis annab alust arvata, et tegu oli väga noore meresõitjaga.

The famous Gokstad ship revealed a foot imprint of a young viking. The ship was in use before it was used for the burial. One trace of such usage was found from the floorplanks where an unknown sailor had scraped his foot outline. The foot was small, giving the impression it was a very young seafarer.
