Thierry Stump, the designer and builder of the Brazilian sailing vessel Paraty 2, describes the boat's conception, construction, and eventual transfer to Swiss scientific use in the first episode of a 10-part series hosted by Marina Guedes.1:19 Stump recounts how navigator Amir Klink pushed him to design progressively larger than his initial 70–75-foot concept, ultimately producing a 30-meter, 100-tonne, 8-meter-beam aluminum vessel built at a self-developed yard in Itapevi, near São Paulo, starting in 1993.6:00 The design philosophy was deliberate simplicity: a "4x4 travel machine" as rugged as a fishing vessel, with EVA non-skid decks, laminated glass ports, and a closed-loop freshwater cooling system holding roughly 1,000 liters of glycol-water per circuit, eliminating seawater intake and the risk of ice or debris blockage in polar or river conditions.24:05 The boat carried 30,000 liters of fuel and motored without refueling from Brazil to Palma de Mallorca to collect its masts.26:54 Transport from the yard to Santos took over a month to cover 120 kilometers.42:58 A legal dispute blocked the sale to Swiss buyers for 18 months before a judge resolved it.47:38 The vessel, renamed Forrel and now owned by the Forrel Heritage Association of Switzerland, completed a 16-day passage from Lorient, France, to Greenland as a scientific platform.2:39 Stump served as the technical liaison between Amir Klink and the Swiss association throughout the acquisition.
