Ken
Jensen's W1348 in Danmark's
Royal Sailpast on 13 June 2020
 On 13
JUN 2020, W1348/KenJensen took part in a
socially responsible 1000-vessel sail
past the royal Danish yacht's buoy
(number 1) in Copenhagen Harbour (more
below). Thanks for sharing,
Ken.
From:
KEN-Krist. H. Jensen [mailto:w1348@hotmail.com]
W1348's
last time in CPH Port
about some 5-6 years ago
watching a celebration
of 500 years of
the Royal Da-No
Navy with many Navy
Vessels(Scand.+NATO)
parading past the
Royal Family,
Our Queen,
Crown Prince
and Princess
plus their two
children on
the Royal Yacht at that
very buoy (above) -
the Crown Princess
being highly pregnant
with twins at the time.
So after the sailpast
the Crown Prince took
off his Admiral's
cap+jacket in order to
help+escort his wife and
children down the ladder
from the Royal Ship for
the chaloupe to take
them ashore. Quite
certainly he was eager
for the cold beer
waiting at his Mother's
Cabin! W1348
under main only, and
with the right of way,
came shockingly close
for La-iad in dense
traffic; so she
completely forgot to
take photos. Kicked
herself going back to
Dragør - a sail that
took three hours against
foul current and wind as
we tacked our way back
home. All
the best - stay well ! Ken
the older W1348"Maitken"
