After a long sailing leg from Gibraltar, we arrived in Jersey to attend the Jersey Boat Show. We had great days in lovely St Helier, and a big interest in visiting the ship. Thank you to everyone who came on board!
After a cold and rainy arrival (but with dolphins jumping at the bow, which brightened up the rainy day) to St Helier in Jersey, the rest of the stopover treated us to weather that only improved every day.
We were in Jersey as part of Jersey Boat Show, and we had a great five days with a continuous stream of visitors on board and great support from the Boat Show organisation. Thank you everyone who came on board!
One of the days we were invited to sing shanties by the main stage, and the crew members on board did an amazing job! If you are curious, there is a short clip of the shanty performance posted on our social media accounts.
Just two days before our arrival to Jersey, the Götheborg also helped rescue a small sailing boat and tow it to the French coast. An adventure for both the crew on Götheborg and the sailing boat. Read the full story here.
Due to the big tides in Jersey, we had to very carefully time our arrival and departure times. Therefore, we left at 6am in the morning on the 2nd of May, with a few early risers coming to wave us off. For those who did make it to the quayside, the gorgeous morning light made it well worth it.

Join us on a guided tour from the city centre to the ship! We begin at Gustav Adolfs Square, where you will hear the story of Gothenburg’s founding. From there, we take a short walk, following the traces of the Swedish East India Company. Why did they travel to China? Who sailed on board, and what happened when the ships returned with their valuable cargoes?
