What this video covers
The crew sailed 70 nautical miles from Ellos, Sweden, to Lingor, Norway, encountering 25-knot winds and heavy following seas that necessitated three reefs in the main and two in the jib.0:43 Upon arrival, they navigated the protected inner passages of the southern Norwegian coast to avoid rough offshore conditions.7:56 They visited the islands of Furoja and Hestoya, noting that many local anchorages present challenges due to extreme water depth and limited swing room for vessels.9:58 The transit continued toward Arendal and eventually rounded the southernmost point of Norway near Mandel, where the landscape transitioned from wooded islets to steep cliffs and fjords.14:13 Navigation through these coastal areas requires careful attention to narrow, shallow channels and solar-powered navigation markers.10:19 The crew utilized small marina guest berths in remote towns like Sagen-Dolstrand, as anchoring proved difficult in the deep, confined harbors.17:02
