Danish term or phrase: skibssejladsen fordelte sig ikke jævnt
Helsingør forgyldes
Da Frederik 2. byggede Kronborg Slot og kunne stå og skue ud over Øresund, sejlede der op mod 50 skibe forbi på en travl dag.
Vintrene var ofte meget kolde, og sundet kunne fryse til, så skibssejladsen fordelte sig ikke jævnt henover året.
Skibene måtte alle kippe med topsejlet og kaste anker for at betale deres told til den danske konge.
Når de så var i land, var det oplagt at proviantere.
