Wednesday 2 June. Sails off and into sail loft. Fitted the racing jib. Motored into Lysefjord to see the famous Pulpit Rock, that features in most brochures about Norway. Amazing fjord scenery.  Found a lovely quiet berth for the night at Langoy, about 2 miles from Stavanger, and met a group of sailors from Stavanger Maritime Museum who were sailing “Anna of Sand”, built in 1848, and possibly the oldest functioning sailing boat in Europe.  Regular visitor to Scotland and Shetlands.
