Cruising the southern coast of Greenland, the crew of the sailboat Jibsea navigates dense fog and ice-filled fjords while managing the logistical demands of high-latitude sailing. The pair relies on radar and visual navigation to avoid growlers and icebergs, often delaying departures until midday to ensure visibility.1:11 When anchoring in areas with unknown bottoms or potential wind shifts, they deploy an anchor ball as a marker to assist in retrieval if the gear snags on rock or thick kelp.5:36 During a stop in Nanortalik, the crew manages a nine-foot tidal range by securing the vessel to a barge rather than a fixed wall, which allows for easier line management.15:03 They also utilize the town’s fuel dock to top off diesel and gasoline reserves, noting that fuel prices in Greenland are lower than in previous cruising grounds.14:03 The checkout process at the local police station requires only a passport stamp and incurs no fees.16:49 After completing laundry and provisioning, the crew prepares for an offshore passage to Iceland.
