About
These coordinates were located in sea in Vantaa, Finland graticule on 2010-06-10, in Porvoo, south west of Pellinki island and east of Tunnholmen island. N 60.18307°, E 25.79898° or more likely N60°10.9841', E25°47.9385' Quite a coincidence that this geohashing location happend to fell in these coordinates. Our working department had planned sailing trip around Pellinki island just today with beautiful wooden sailingboat called Alexandra.[1] There were about 25 people who have never heard about geohashing. After we got on ship I talked one of the crew over and our first destination of this trek to be this geohashing spot. So I just sat or stood on the ship and saw from my gps that the distance get lesser until it was below 5 metres. And there we were. I couldn't have got there without this ship and the crew. So I managed to get my workmates and ship crew on the spot in gulf of Finland. Ship crew I haven't met before this day and they were very nice too. It was very exciting as well as the hole trip was so even without this detour. We reached back to Alexandras pier about 2:30 pm. What a relaxing and pleasant working day..:)
