THE BALTIC
There wasn’t one of us in the CB office who didn’t long to try this one out: chartering one of the most beautiful classics – a wooden, clinker Scandinavian Folkboat – in one of the world’s best cruising grounds, the 30,000 islands of the Stockholm Archipelago. Dinghy cruiser Roger Barnes beat us to it in 2007. “Thanks,” we said through gritted teeth... Of course, it’s not the only
charter available in the Baltic: the Stockholm Archipelago is one of the world’s great charter zones. Our man in Sweden assures us you can walk off the plane and charter a canoe, yacht, rowing boat, motorboat or just about anything in between. See our list, right, for other suggestions.

OTHER CHARTERS Classic Yacht Charter in Stockholm is yet another of the innumerable agents listing classic charter yachts, although this one predates the web, meaning it has some pedigree. Tel: +46 (0)8 611 8480, www.

LAKE DISTRICT
The English Lake District offers many fine sailing opportunities – perhaps especially now that most lakes have speed bans for power boats. One of our favourites is on Ullswater – the Glendridding Sailing Centre, where you can hire tan-sailed Lune Whammels from £35 an hour (£110 per day). See page 64.
