Hi Andre

it's Helgoland, my regular place to see.
Irish coffee? Don't drink and drive when you can smoke and fly...
Just kidding, plain black coffee it was

I had an idea it was Helgoland. Nice island and I was fortunate to have had a stopover there in 2009 when we were bringing a Parker rib over to Southampton from Gdynia Poland

I cannot imagine you being a smoking person

You must have done a fair number of trips to Helgoland over the years.

Jan, not to mention the price of diesel

I think you should post a few more photos cos 175 views in such a short time indicates that photos from such cruises are in demand

Hi Jan, a good selection of photos cheers . I guess there are only a handful of dedicated ribsters like you in Germany.

The only other one I have heard of is Bushrider who did the RB with Whisper
