Midtre Sandvika: Vi klarte "med skohorn" å plassere vår Comfortina 32 (1,75 m dyp, 9,75 m lang, 3,3 m bred) longside på berget til høyre når du kommer inn i bukta. Ikke mer enn 15-20cm klaring fra bunnen for både ror og kjøl, og ca samme klaring sideveis før ror/kjøl går mot steiner. Den oppsatte bolten en knapp meter bak akter, roret svinget utover under vann, store kulefendere akter for å få avstand, og fenderplanke/fendere ca ved masten. Klatretur for å sette egne kiler. Vi fikk god hjelp av sørvest vind som holdt skuta mot berget etter det ene festet bak mens vi satte kiler. Jettegryta på høyde med masten er evt et sted å få tak og holde inntil. Selv med bølger fra båttrafikk på utsiden og dønninger fra havet et det stille inne i vika. Alle båter går sakte i vika, men skulle noen klare å lage bølger risikerer du å komme nærme bunn på lavvann. Klart vanskeligste, og beste plassering vi har hatt i Sandviken. På eget ansvar!.

Descriptions and reviews

area

maritime qualities

description

It is important to note that at the innermost part of the bay, there is eelgrass that can get caught in the propeller and cause damage to the sealing ring. Otherwise, the bay is absolutely fantastic for both anchoring and mooring alongside the cliff.

description

Entry and maritime conditions: If you dare to sail in, you will find a small paradise. The nautical chart does not give all the details, but if you stay in the middle of the channel, there is 3-4 meters depth all the way in. At the innermost part of the inlet, there is a lot of seaweed and it is difficult to gauge, but after a bit of probing with a boat hook from a dinghy, the entire middle section of the inlet is 2.5 meters or deeper. No guarantee that there aren't rocks somewhere, but you will only see and find seaweed or hard sandy bottom. Closer to the cliffs, it shallows with both sand and rock.
Anchoring: To the south, southeast, and southwest, you can carefully point the bow towards land and possibly get a line ashore. With a sailboat of 1.5 to 2 meters draft, you can't expect to remain close for easy disembarkation as you need to keep some distance due to the keel. To the north, there is 2-3 meters depth close to the cliff and easier to moor bow-in or possibly alongside if you find a suitable area. There are only two bolts in the entire inlet and little vegetation, so have rock spikes ready. Difficult with an anchor in all the grass and hard sand, but at the same time very protected, so little drift of the boat regardless of wind direction.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated 1 hour and 9 minutes ago (Tuesday 22 October 06:31 PM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.
