End Airport-Security Shoe-Removal Misery

Are you a frequent flyer, airport staff or airline crew-member? Put an end to airport-security shoe-removal misery with Airport-Friendly shoes!

Metal-free shoes and boots, which don’t set off the alarms in metal detectors, are now available from many shoe manufacturers. Many can be found online at Zappos.

I chose the Florsheim Berkley slipons, in black. $90.

    We had 2 more Danish stops en route to Swedish waters. Both passages were 60 or so nautical miles so longish days. Winds were strong – force 5, 6 and 7 so constant sail adjustment and, as we were beating up wind, Mistral was constantly heeled over – tea, coffee and lunch making duties all […]
  • Germany to Denmark … an engine problem?
    An early start to sail into Danish waters, up to an anchorage on the north east of Tasinge Island. A challenging sail as once again, we were navigating narrow channels with shallow waters. We had force 5 westerly winds so some good sailing … very happy to turn the motor off, especially as it had […]
