Thilo and Leonie of the Blue Horizon channel are launching a crowdfunding campaign to finance the purchase of a larger, expedition-capable sailing vessel.6:23 The pair intends to transition from their current small steel boat to a more robust, potentially aluminum-hulled craft to facilitate high-latitude voyages, including potential transits of the Northwest Passage or Cape Horn.3:21 They cite a need for increased autonomy, better performance, and additional living space to accommodate guests and improve their film production workflow.4:49 Required technical upgrades for the new vessel include a watermaker, heating system, electric windlass, and enhanced solar capacity.4:08 The duo has set a funding goal of 100,000 to 150,000 euros, with the campaign running for six months.7:45 They plan to continue sailing their current boat toward Canada before completing the sale and transitioning to the new platform, ideally by next summer.7:46 The project aims to move beyond standard Atlantic and Caribbean cruising toward remote, ice-prone expedition sailing.8:57
