Qué cubre este vídeo
A 38-ft sailboat approaches the coast of Greenland in the Greenland Sea, navigating through fields of sea ice and icebergs under calm, windless conditions.12:10 The crew, Micha and Antje, motor at 3 to 6 knots while monitoring the radar and visual horizon for ice hazards.7:04 Despite clear weather and 3-degree Celsius temperatures, the vessel encounters a dense, closed ice pack approximately 10 miles from their intended anchorage in a fjord.31:13 The crew attempts to identify a navigable passage through the ice, but the density of the floes prevents further progress toward the coast.21:28 The sun remains visible throughout the night due to the high latitude north of the Polar Circle.7:29 The passage concludes with the vessel forced to halt in open water as the ice conditions render the final approach to the fjord impassable.31:09
