Qué cubre este vídeo

Erik Aanderaa sails his 38-ft boat, Tessie, from Haugesund, Norway, on a 3,600-nautical-mile expedition toward the North Pole.0:33 The route follows the outer Norwegian coast, prioritizing open-water passages to maintain speed and avoid congested inshore waterways.5:34 During the transit, the boat encounters 28-to-30-knot winds while sailing downwind, forcing the captain to turn into the wind to safely douse the mainsail.11:54 Docking maneuvers at Ona lighthouse require two attempts due to 25-knot gusts shifting the boat off the pontoon.14:38 The captain manages Crohn’s disease during the voyage using self-administered Remsima injections.10:27 Navigation through the archipelago toward Sula and Halten requires strict adherence to charts to avoid thousands of surrounding skerries and shoals.18:20 The captain tests an emergency autopilot system that steers the hydro-vane rudder, maintaining a course within 10 degrees in moderate conditions.22:10 The journey concludes at the remote island of Halten, where the crew prepares to cross the Folla ocean during an incoming southwesterly gale.23:10
