Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Matt Rutherford, founder of Ocean Research Projects and first person to sail solo nonstop around the Americas, discusses high-latitude sailing in Greenland, crew management, and equipment failures in a podcast interview recorded at the Annapolis Boat Show.5:40
Rutherford describes Greenland's informal customs procedures — early years saw no paperwork at all; recent seasons required filling out immigration forms twice, with no passport stamps.16:05 He explains Greenland's dog laws: north of the Arctic Circle only traditional Greenlandic sled dogs are permitted, south of it they are banned.11:07 He visited Nanortalik, a village of roughly 2,000 near the entrance to Prince Christian Sound, and discusses the disruptive presence of cruise ships in Arctic communities.16:20 A Raymarine CP370 sounder arrived broken from the factory; bad customer-service advice sent him through an unnecessary haul-out to replace transducers, which failed to fix the unit, leaving him without a depth sounder while charting uncharted Greenland waters.29:05 A crew member broke her arm in three places at a marina fire pit during that haul-out.0:05 Crew management on the passage from the U.S. to Nova Scotia and onward to Greenland is discussed, including sleep deprivation during the first month of breaking in new crew.30:01 The 59 North flagship Falcon's 2025 Pacific season — Panama Canal, Galapagos, Tahiti, Marquesas, Hawaii, British Columbia — is announced.1:05
