Hi New World!  :D

Just some info for those who think Sweden has no water or lakes, I've read such comments here on HD... :rolleyes

California is approx 163,000 square miles.
Sweden 173,000 square miles
Sweden has approx 90000 lakes, no not 9000...  :D

Anyway, here is a clip from "my" lake, and my Baja 24 is seen @2:00  :D

(more pictures this coming winter  :) )

Thanks for the pictures and videos Melvis. Your lake is beautiful, it reminds me of the lakes here in Canada. Surrounded by trees and not too much development (homes) and the boats are smaller. How about sharing with your boating brothers in the good old USA what it costs to fuel up in Sweden? I am used to Canada's high prices but yours will shock boaters on this forum. This is where the States are headed if they give Obama another term.

Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then defeat you with experience.

Thanks for all your kind words!  :good

We're having a snow blizzard right now... did I mention that I don't like snow?  :cold

Here's a video from last winter, a friend forgot his boat  :sleep  and then winter came...  :rolleyes

That's me with the chain saw  :D

The boat was filled with water and ice, it weighed a ton...

Well, we do have our share of lakefront properties, and bigger boats too. The video is shot a few miles away from nearest city.

Gas prices...  :guns  :banghead  :pissed

Hmmm...  let's see if I get this right... :confused
1 Liter = 0,26 Gallon
The "on water" gas price is approx. 15 SEK / liter (Swedish Krona)
1$ = 6,6 SEK

Well guys, get your calculators!  :D
