Qué cubre este vídeo

Sven Yrvind is constructing a new 5.6-meter long, 1.4-meter beam sailboat designed for an upcoming circumnavigation.1:34 The planned route begins in Årskjönd, Norway, proceeds north of the Faroe Islands, passes east of South America, and continues south of Africa and Australia to Dunedin, New Zealand.0:46 The return leg involves rounding Cape Horn before heading back to Sweden.1:07 Current construction progress includes installing a carbon fiber spar from Ulf at Morström, fabricating water-collecting booms, and adding a forward mast to house a wind generator and antenna.1:55 Yrvind is modifying the previous tilting mast design to a fixed configuration and using polyurethane foam to fill voids in the hull structure.3:12 The project emphasizes small-boat design, which Yrvind advocates as a sustainable, low-cost alternative to larger vessels.3:27 He cites his 150-day North Atlantic voyage in 2020–2021 as evidence of the viability of small-craft ocean sailing.4:42 Funding for the project is solicited through his website, PayPal, and Swish.6:31
