This is a good chance for Mekicevica to venture deeper into the Oosterschelde. One cruising destination we have had in mind for a while is the town of Goes. To get there from our base in Bruinisse we need to leave a couple of hours before low water to sail the Keteen with the last of the ebbing tide and be near the Zeeland bridge at the turn of the tide, so we can than continue to Wilhelminadorp and Goes with the flooding tide. In the last bit we will be beating in a wind-against-tide situation, but in light winds that should not be too much of a problem.
The ideal timing to sail from Bruinisse to Goes is getting to the Zeeland bridge at the turn of the tide. |
