Cosa tratta questo video

Four young women, led by 19-year-old Anna Tori VN Petersen, restored the historic Norwegian sloop Sorgenfri on a minimal budget and departed Asker on June 16 bound for the Canary Islands, where they are preparing for a transatlantic crossing.0:50 Sorgenfri is the boat Johan Jørgen Petersen and Peder Krog sailed to both Antarctica and the Arctic on a single voyage — the first Norwegian vessel to reach both extremes in one trip — making it a well-known boat in Norwegian sailing history.0:09 After years of neglect, the hull had fiberglass damage, metal corrosion, and multiple technical failures.0:28 The crew funded the restoration through jobs at a fish-processing plant and a kindergarten, borrowed equipment, and volunteer help from Hol Marine.1:13 They taught themselves fiberglass repair and electrical work, overhauled the entire rig, and cut and rebuilt the corroded base of the mast.1:38 Their guiding principle was reuse: the original globe from earlier voyages, a sewing machine, and one of the GPS units were all retained.1:52 On departure day, the crew received the restoration prize at the Oslofjordmuseet.2:06 Full restoration details appear in the latest issue of Seilmagasinet.2:34
