Cosa tratta questo video

Three Norwegian sailors in their early thirties — Henrik, Olav, and Henning — introduce themselves and their planned circumnavigation aboard Ærevika, a 1986 Jeanneau Sun Legende 41.Watch They departed Sogndal on 1 June and spent 10–11 days reaching Kjærløy, near Fredrikstad, where they paused to complete a refit before continuing.1:17 Upgrades include a new arch with solar panels, lithium batteries, a watermaker, AIS for Marine Traffic tracking, a chartplotter, autopilot, and Starlink.2:10 The planned route runs south along the European coast, to Gran Canaria by November, across the Atlantic to the Caribbean in December, into the Pacific in March (storm season permitting), through Pacific islands to Australia — roughly one year total, after which the crew plans to sell the boat.3:11 All three hold one-year leaves of absence from work.3:39 Surfing remote Pacific breaks is the primary draw; orca encounters and docking in crowded harbors are the main concerns.3:55 The crew taught themselves the electrical installation from YouTube and manuals over two weeks, reasoning that doing the work themselves means they can troubleshoot failures underway.7:26
