A Russian Car Carrier has been grounded north of Oskarshamn in the archipelagos and is now being towed to Oskarshamn. Sadly it leaked a lot of oil in the area.

On our way north we will pass this area and I will keep up on what this means for us sailing north through this area.
Next weeks crew will not be much affected, except that we plan to end the week in the same harbor as the ship is towed to: Oskarshamn.
