Hi and warm welcome to my homepage.
My name is Bosse Johansson, being a swede living in stockholm, my intention with this website was to keep contact with dear-ones during my project of buying and sailing my Scanmar 35 from Rock Hall Maryland (US) to Stockholm Sweden, but over time more things have made their way into the site.

Unfortunattly the project was aborted 350 NM east of Bermuda when, having had the second Force 9 on top of us, the port lower shroud (10 mm) broke right off, I decided to motor back to Bermuda and with that the time frame crashed, I then decided to sail to New York and ship here home on a freighter.
