I’ll see if I can find one, but I’ll have less time for fun the next few weeks. Today I was asked to translate the second part (270 pages) of a book that will be released this autumn – and the deadline is 1st of August. Confused

It’s also quite a secret project. For the first time in my life I had to sign a non disclosure agreement, so I don’t even dare to tell you the title of the book or who the author is.

We can leave till when you are ready if you want. Or just take it slowly.  I don't mind if an  answer takes a long time.

So the ship is Swedish, but is it also built in Sweden?


Sorry guys. Been away doing field work. No internet (brr!).

Yes, it is built in Sweden.

Hint: It is new, yet very old-fashioned.

Wow! Then my guess is Tre Kronor af Stockholm (aka the Stockholm Brig).

...and we have a winner!

Also replicated the journey to China and has toured coasts around Europe.
I've seen it and was quite impressed.

A beauty. And it’s huge! I see they will cross the Atlantic next year.

Working like hell now. I’ll see if I can come up with a new one tomorrow.
