I live in the region ( southern Sweden). That´s a serious crossing, with variable weather, currents and lots of ship traffic.
Good luck!!

Thanks to all.
We are waiting for WSW or ENE 12-18kts winds.
It will be too much swell this Saturday. No problem for WKS Grzybowo team but it might be too much for the assisting boats and their crews.
