Crossing the North sea to Denmark in a 22 fot sailboat | Ep. 10
After 4 years of preparations, it's finally time to leave Norway!
I'm joined by my childhood friend Jørgen, an experienced mariner that has previously sailed to Orkney, and worked as a fisherman in the arctic north of Finnmark. He just came home from the Amazon, and wanted to join in on one last adventure, before taking over the family farm back home.
My brother Frikk needs no introduction for those of you that have seen my previous episodes, and he brought his friend Daniel with him, aka mr. sixpence.
We leave Stavanger, and make it to the remote island of Rott west of sola, where we spend a few days exploring, before heading south along the coast of Jæren towards Egersund. Along the way we...

Hiking the world's longest wooden stairs | Ep. 9
Просмотров 296Месяц назад
In this episode I leave Lysebotn, and sail to Flørli, where I stay for a few days waiting out some bad weather. I hike the Flørli stairs, the world's longest wooden stairs, and hike around back down past Flørlistølen, where I worked as a teenager. I then sail to Songesand, where a Gravel boat keeps me up all night, before exiting Lysefjorden. The weather forecast predicted strong easterlies, so...

First time taking my 22 fot boat off-shore
I Brest nå. Langt unna?
Ligget værfast en uke ++. Er i nordsjøen igjen imorgen ettermiddag, får mannskap. Er meldt østavind, så vi skal seile nonstop. Kvitt dieseldyrene, eller blitt en gud på å krysse? 😅 Klar for biskaya?
bro a piss bucket? when you’re in natures biggest toilet?!
Half the men that drown every year are found with their zipper open 😅 + you're more likely to hit yourself or the boat when there's waves 😂
Never pee against the wind. Even on land 😂😂😂
The wind always prevails 😂
Piss off the boat directly and not into a bucket. You're men for Christ sake.
Butt pirates? Oh, pee pirates...😂
😂
Isn’t it unsafe to fly that flag or is it just a joke because the movies. I guess the question does it mean what it meant a long time ago
Well, If a navy captain decided to sink a 22 fot sailboat for flying it, he'd have a hard time defending that decision 😅 I've heard its a no-go in some places, but most of the time they dont care, as long as youve got your national flag and courtesy flag up. But I'm gonna keep flying it anyway 😅🏴☠️
Lol fair play to you boys...sometimes we're just not thinking it happens 😂
Yeah, no books or courses prepare you for that 😅
You pirates be safe out there ☠️
🏴☠️
god damn that’s brutal 😂
Yeah, I dont recommend trying it 😅
"I see," said the blind man, peeing into the wind. "It's all coming back to me now."
Haha man, I'm dying 😂
@@sondreelnes My Dad used to say that a lot.
A man of wisdom, that one!
Oooh
Va heldigvis ikkje Kamchatka! 😅
It doesn't have a tugboat, so it can't be Russian… now that is what I call a sense of humour 🙂
And its actually true 😂 Check out the story of the aircraft carrier "Admiral Kuznetsov"
Wait where did Daniel go, what happened 😮 will we get an answer in the next episode, he was my favorite character😔🥺
I just loved the piss scene, that sixpence guy is so funny and charming
😉😉😘😘
Sadly, we'll never know. Rumour has it that he's still seen on windy days, carrying a black bucket
Proper comedian that one, always taking a piss at people
Kommet til Nederland?
Straks i Kiel. Vore litt motvind 😅 Kor i verden er du?
@@sondreelnes Da har du tilbakelagt flere NM enn meg, bare litt andre retninger. Stått fast i Markermeer innsjøen med dieseldyr-utryddelse en snau uke.
Det suger! Eg har øydelagt utenbordsbraketten, men ligge verfast ved biltema. Tok du standing mast route, eller nordsjøen?
@@sondreelnes Alt skal gå i stykket før eller seinere på en båt! Nordsjøen så langt. Trives best uttaskjærs den jolla mi 😄
Jepp, men kjipt når ting ein allerede har bytta ryke 😅 men sånn er nå båtlivet. Stikke innom på dieseldyrjakt om du fortsatt er der når eg kjeme forbi :)
Woaow how cute
Vannversjonen av Zelda, holde deg våken heila nattå 😅
Venter i spenning på video fra Caribbean.
Ikkje holda pusten i detta drittvêret 😅 Snart i Tyskland, så i fyrste omgang bler det eksotiske Danske strender.
@@sondreelnes he he fine 🙂 👍 👌
Dude! Kommer du deg nedover kysten? -Magnus
Ja, men på andra sidå. Kartet slutta å virka dagen du drog, så kom for seint avgårde. Vore umuligt å komma seg ut etter det uten motor, mastefoten under vatn i bøkger over dekk når eg prøvde. Så er på veg ned austkysten, tek Kielkanalen istedenfor å venta lengre 😉 Kor langt er du komen?
@@sondreelnesBlei stående i Hvide sande i 3 dager med autopilot/elektro fiksing. Så begynte å lure når du ikke kom etter! Er nå i Esbjerg og venter på 1 mannskap som kommer i morra tidlig. Skal bruke de 2-3 dagene med nedvind neste uke for å seile nonstop imot engelske kanal. Etter neste uke går det seint igjen, så du tar neg nok igjen ila august!
Typisk av den å daua! Fekk fiksa an då? Bankers med den vinden, satt å sikla på windy når dei meldte det. Satser på at det varer, og at eg og rekker den! Megachill her då, lommabokå like ankring 😅 Skal holda utkikk nedover, båtane våre skille seg jo ut i mengden 😂
Good choice
Yeah, could just as well have made my life shorter...
Utrolig gøy å få være med på reisen! Keep em coming!
Will do tjommie! Og du er hjerterligt velkommen til å vera med et stykke på turen! Me seile til Danmark imårå :)
So nice meeting you.
Likewise! Enjoy your adventures :)
Hi. Look at my diy outboard build. The motor is too small, so is the battery pack in both capacity and voltage. I'd recommend switching to something closer to a Flipsky 65165 motor and a 48v battery bank. That gives you 6kw or around 7.5hp for thrust and much lower Amps and thus less energy wasted as heat. If you aren't switching, can that motor be run at 24v? If so, do that so you only have to run half the Amps for the same load. Gives you longer range for just reconfiguring the cells in series instead of parallel, and higher top speed since you get x rpm per volt. 12v is really not suitable for this. It's a relic from old cars.
I know, the main reason for going with 12 volts was the price of the engine (got it at a 50% discount). I would have preferred the 24V version, as the 50mm2 cables were a pain to work with. But at least my power loss is as low as it can be, no heat unless I run it at full throttle. It cant be overclocked, sadly. The MPPT can be used both as a 12 and 24V charger, so the plan is to get a haswing ventura f.5 (or similar) if the current one (protruar 3.0) dies. Although my main priority now is getting a shunt installed, and maybe a few extra batteries. Using a stopwatch gets old real quick 😅 6KW is way more than I need though, I've been doing just fine for two and a half months cruising the west coast of Norway non-stop. I prefer sailing, and except for narrow fjords with gusty wind, I've never felt underpowered. But my last gas outboard was a 2,5hp, and I've been using oars as well, so the engine is very much an auxiliary propulsion. But as I mention in my video, my setup would not work for a weekend sailor that needs to get back to the marina by sunday evening. I'm sailing south for the canaries tomorrow, and I'll probably change the setup a fair bit as needed. Will film, and post it here of course. Thank you for a well written comment, I'll check out your build!
@@sondreelnes that's 👍. Yeah I would only worry that the motor wouldn't be able to pull against the wind if you are having strong winds from land and you are trying to get in. Let me know if you want to discuss it one day - would be a fun episode to record
Yeah, thats something to avoid, although my new jib helps with that! Unless its too gusty, of course... Will do!
Looking forward to the next episode! hope there will be more diy🌊⛵️🤩🛠️
Stuff breaks all the time, so you won't have to wait long! The inverter just died, so gonna have to give that a go soon :)
😛
🏴☠️
Man what a life, that is so cool. Norway is so beautiful! WOW Best wishes from northern Germany. ✌
Thank you! The market is held every year in june at Hafrsfjord, feel free to drop by if you're in the area :)
Storm chasing med seilbåt. Likere 👍
Nja, va vel meir stormen så jakta ner meg 😅 Skummulunimbus spise ikkje bare pg!
thoroughly enjoyed the video. Does the ray marine need calibrating maybe, if that’s something that can be done.
Thank you! It doesnt have any trouble above 3,5knots, so the problem seems to be slow speeds combined with waves. It is self-calibrating afaik, but I'll see if its possible. More expensive setups has a separate sensor mounted in the bow, that might be an option if I can get hold of one
I simply can't stand that you haven't got more followers. Keep up the good work.
That means a lot to me, thank you so much! I will not let you down
How quickly it got dark, wow.
Yeah, thundercells are no joke! They can become taller than 10km if the conditions are right. Not much light getting through that
You need proper sunglasses buddy. ps. Thank you for sharing. ^_^
Yeah, got myself a pair in the end! My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it!
Put something between the batteries and the brackets holding them. Over time they will destroy the battery of vibrations, waves etc.
Already did. I cut planks to length, and stuffed the space between them. But that is sound advice, thank you!
@@sondreelnes Yea, we have batteries that sit with just metal and bothing between. After some time they move around and over time brake :) Just use some type of plastic / sponges.
I worked in Bømlo for a while very picturesque SPF bedsheet lol
I'm actually passing Bømlo in a few hours! Currently in Leirvik waiting for a weather window to cross Slettå. Yeah, the transition from overcast winter to sunny spring was brutal this year. But the bedsheet works!
Where did you put the solar panel? Do you use it to charge the batteries?
The 180W panel usually just lays on deck, and yes, I do charge my batteries from it! Its been a month now, and Ive never emptied the batteries fully. My next video shows how I go about using the setup, as it was filmed at the same time as the final parts of this one
I’m interested in your runtime and top speed on your set up
My batteries are 2x100Ah 12V Lifepo4, so Ive got slightly under 3 hours of full throttle on flat water (the engine draws 75Amps, but even running 50mm2 cables 3 meters from the battery gives me some efficiency loss). That gives me 2,5-7 Knots on flat water, and a little over 2 in a 15 knot headwind with a little chop. Running at 1,5-8 knots gives me 10 hours, and eco-mode (2,5 knots) lasts for about 5. My effective range so far inshore and in the fjords going at 2,5kts have been 15nm. In comparison, a suzuki 2,5hp gave me 3,5kts, and a mercury 6hp had a top speed of 4,5kts. My hull speed is 5,8kts
Did you consider converting an old two stroke motor leg with a blown engine and adding your own motor.
No, but If I had a good DC motor laying around that would have been a possibility. You could still use the impeller for cooling as well. But a driveshaft with gears wont be as quiet, and I got the haswing for half the retail price. Im curious to see how long it will last though.
@@sondreelnes That's good news.. pod motors are a great solution but be they hull mounted or outboard pole sized it's very often the prop size number of blades and pitch that determines their effectiveness.. I will have to look up the Chinese manufacturer that a lot of people have been using ... For bikes etc they were initially sold as golden motors. .. Watch this space once I've had a chance to check.
I actually considered a pod drive, as outboards can be a bit of a hassle in chop. But the maxi 68 doesnt really have a good spot for mounting one. Im also a bit skeptical about galvanic currents with a through-hull dc engine in saltwater. But thrusters work just fine, so Im sure its possible to do safely.
Love it. I’m building a electric catamaran with a very similar motor set up. Nice to see other people making use of these outboards
Thank you! What catamaran, engine, and how do you plan to do it? Im currently in a cove recharging in overcast weather, bet you'll be able to fit a ton of solar compared to me!
Nice!!
Du har troå? :p
Gje gass 😎
Da va vel ikkje din håpa eg?🙈🙈
Nei, ubåtlivet er litt for klaustrofobisk for meg
I would love to see this attempted on Mount Everest 😮
It has been done, by several people! The challenge is the thin atmosphere, unless you have wind, you really gotta run fast compared to lower altitudes. ruclips.net/video/ropDA2wAjr8/видео.html
Ååå, se kor ung du va der!! Nydeligste guten på jord❤❤❤
Det må ha vore nesten rett før eg traff deg eller..?

Nice!!
Jupp!
Cool👍
Thanks!
@@sondreelnes I subbed bcuz what you do looks fun! I may not be able to do it but watching other people do amazes me!
Thank you, and yes it is! It's actually not that hard to get into, and whether you wanna learn how to skydive, speedfly or paraglide, there's lots of places all over the world that can teach you!
Awesome 😂🎉
