its a nice route especially in summertimes, do you take the short way through the north sea baltic sea canal?
give me a hint if you have to do it again I will come with you. the wadden sea is very dangerous if you dont know it and what may look idyllic can have hidden danger under the surface. the gats between the islands in frisian called Ee or Aa can be very deep and have a extrem speed when the tide is coming.
the frisians development "Plattbodenschiff" or "Platbodem" on netherlandish without a keel but centreboards is the right thing for this

they have find now over 350 dead seals on north frisian islands alone. the national park - of course, the leader's of this get their appointment by political reason's meaning they have the political correct oppinion - declaring this is fine because its a natural process. hunting the seals again would not be "natural"

if the animal dying by a disease its fine, if you hunt it its a crime

btw, there is a special group of "seal hunter" the "Seehundbeauftragte" - typical german word - or "Seehundjäger" but with the assignment of the local government. he care for the seals in every way and when there is an living animal but with clear signs of such an disease he will shot it. goverment official dont talk about this because they are natural born hypocrites.

you simply have to look and move like a seal
