What this video covers

A sailor aboard Dus, a boat being prepared in Oslo, announces a solo summer passage to Bornholm one week before departure.▶ 0:24 The motivation is personal: the skipper is one-quarter Bornholmer, his grandfather Ole — who died last autumn — was from the island, and the family owns a summer house there.▶ 0:38 Arriving by sea rather than land has been a lifelong goal.▶ 0:54 To prepare Dus for the trip, he has completed a range of work including installing a new chartplotter, a new breaker panel, and other electrical upgrades, plus fitting a new mainsail shackle; a compass installation remains.▶ 0:00 The planned route runs from Oslo south past Færder fyr, then across to Læsø, Anholt, København, Bornholm, and home via the Swedish coast.▶ 1:39 Updates are promised every other day on seilmagasinet.no and social media.▶ 1:31
