François Salabert is standing next to his F1-V8 Benson & Hedges boat. Not sure who it is in the drivers seat.

It is always a nice safety feature, when you can take someone boating and she has her own built-in floating devices.

A chilly early Friday morning boating turned out great after a few hours.
We started up driving the car to Eknäs, Ingarö and got onboard my son Richards boat. Roland was the captain and the destination was Sandhamn.
I did a google map and the red circle is the start, blue circle Sandhamn and the yellow line is the way we drove.
Many more pictures in separate posts later..This was a fun, nice boat ride to see friends and the fantastic islands.

Sandhamns Värdshus is by far the best restaurant in the Stockholm archipelago.
A very long history..Sandhamns Värdshus opened the doors back in 1672...!!
We did have a great lunch and got the opportunity to met Lars & his wife, they have been the owners of this very popular restaurant since 1979. (First Picture)
Thank you.
