What this video covers

Juho and Sohvi Kangasluoma depart Sisimiut, Greenland, to begin a passage toward Europe, marking the official completion of their multi-year Northwest Passage transit.▶ 17:41 The crew performs a quick maintenance fix on the boat’s propeller shaft seal by injecting grease into the tube nipples while the vessel sits in calm, glassy conditions.▶ 3:05 They navigate an intricate, unsurveyed inner route south of Sisimiut, noting that another vessel recently ran aground in the same area.▶ 12:37 The pair anchors in a sheltered bay south of the Arctic Circle, where depths measure 4 to 5 meters over a partly sandy bottom.▶ 21:11 The location remains clear of the fog bank hovering just offshore.▶ 20:58 During the transit, the crew prepares meals using pressure-canned salmon preserved three years prior in Alaska.▶ 11:00 The passage marks their first time south of the Arctic Circle in several years, signaling the transition out of the sled dog region of Greenland.▶ 17:25
