It seems there has been a bit going on in the background whilst we have been frolicking about on the ocean waves! With our “Print Making Under Sail” voyage from Spring 2022 being featured in the July/August issue of Condé Nast Traveller

We are looking for a person with a genuine passion for wooden boats who would like to pursue a long term career as a sailor, to begin their journey with us. The position would begin in early March and would involve finishing off the winter jobs list, preparing the boat for a busy season and then a back to back season of charters in both Cornwall and Scotland.

If you came sailing onboard Eda Frandsen this summer, there is a fairly good chance you ate Sourdough Crumpets for breakfast at least once.

So if you, like me are still trying to keep your lock-down sourdough starter going and are a fan of buttery, crunchy bottomed, golden-delicious breakfast treats that can be either sweet or savoury. I have written my many-times-tested Eda Frandsen approved method below!

On Thursday evening, just after I had gotten out of the shower, and just before we were about to head out for dinner, an enormous, towering cumulus came looming over the town behind us. Within 5 minutes neither Mungo nor I could stand up on deck and all the boats out on moorings suddenly tore at their chains and lines.

Welcome to Eda Frandsen and the next chapter in her long and happy life!

Meet Stella & Mungo, Eda Frandsen’s new custodians, who, after spending many years sailing around the world are very happy to be returning to their native homes to fulfil their long-held dreams of sharing their skills, knowledge and sailing philosophy with a whole new generation of sailors.

It’s a pretty interesting story actually.

Having been constructed in 1938 at a shipyard in Grenå, for a shell- fisherman from Lemvig, “Legoda” as she was originally known, worked as a Hajkotter fishing trawler until 1988. Being renamed in 1970 as “Eda Frandsen” after the wife of her owner of the time, Aye Anderson.
