The crew of a 46-foot Bavaria Yachts 46 CRUISER navigates the coastal waters of northern Norway, transiting from Fjeldal to Lødingen and eventually reaching the narrow entrance of Trollfjorden.0:21 The 17-nautical-mile passage through Tjeldsund requires careful timing with tidal gates to manage currents reaching 3 knots.1:06 The route involves navigating a complex, narrow fairway marked by shifting sandbanks and buoys, necessitating constant chart verification.2:08 In Lødingen, the crew maneuvers into the shallow Melkebukta harbor to refuel at a pontoon, utilizing an absorbent fuel-spill pad as a precaution during the transfer.5:15 After anchoring at Hegstadossen, the vessel proceeds through a field of skerries toward Trollfjorden.7:45 The entrance to the fjord is approximately 100 meters wide, flanked by steep rock walls with a risk of falling rocks due to spring freeze-thaw cycles.15:54 Throughout the journey, the crew encounters significant snowpack at higher elevations, forcing the abandonment of planned hikes to Trollfjordhütte and other summits due to avalanche risks.5:03
