Hello Mats! Thanks for this nice message. Unfortunately we missed each other in Rostock. And I was sad to realize that I was in Brantevik when you presented the Easter Island - Papeete, but missed it! Well our paths will cross eventually. All the best!

@ Hej Johan, kul att se ditt svar! Synd att vi missade varandra igen, bildvisningen och snacket i Brantevik blev kul. Många intresserade åhörare med intressanta frågor bl a om Påskön men också om Bark Europa segling. Dina kompisar som var ombord på Ingo i Rostock var ju supertrevliga! Minns särskilt ett snack med en tjej från Gbg som är läkare (kirurg?), glömde tyvärr hennes namn, vad är det? Ja, hoppas att vi kan ses nån gång, kanske kan jag få mönstra på din Yggdrasil nånstans! Hälsningar/Mats

Thank you dear Buse!

Kära Claes! Otroligt fint att höra från dig såhär. Kan minnas den sommaren -12 tydligt och även några av våra upplevelser ihop. Bara att tänka på dig får mig att le faktiskt, så du sa ganska många roliga grejer haha. Tack min vän!

Thank you! There are a few years in between but it feels very good to get the stories out there over time. More to come!! ❤

Thanks for the feedback. It was difficult to tie it up in an understandable way, I am glad you could relate!

Dear Alex! Thank you for this comment! Can´t wait untill our courses intercept in the future, hopefully without any collision ;) Johan

Miss Wella! Thanks for the thorough reply and the positive energy. I am honored that you find it interesting! Yes we passed the catamaran just after squeezing through the bottleneck in the preceding scene. Their margins must have been very slim. Thankfully Yggdra only draw 2 meters (six foot eight) but our limiting factor was the depth. In the middle it is 2,8 meters and the seabed has a slope of 30 degrees. The canal surely offers good training in maneuvering but the whole crew got the knack of it quickly and partly it felt like we drove on tracks. All the locks tunes the comfort around mooring as well but it was nice to have a few extra hands on deck. She has a large engine and a tank capacity to motor across the Atlantic! Despite that the canal experience was good fun, it was a blessing to be out on the West Coast and hoisting sails for real. Take care!

Great, that gives me one more reason to make it happen!

You are actually not the first to say that my radio voice resembles that of Dracula's.. Haha I just like dramatic narrations, they might be a bit over the top sometimes.

Hej Jonas! Så roligt att höra från dig, du dyker ofta upp i mina tankar. Ja i nästa avsnitt besöker vi Ekens skärgård så det blir något klipp från Vänern. Hoppas vi möts igen snart. Ha det gott sålänge!

Hi Marie! Yes. Looking at how she moves it looks so easy. In that kind of weather it still feels that you are out at sea. The sounds of the wind in the rig and of the water flowing past the hull. Of items banging around in lockers. Especially as this was the first sail for almost a year, there were a few items that starts moving that we you have forgotten to secure. Seasickness kicks in for some and the attention that the sail handling and navigation requires, combined with some nervousness, makes it a tiring but stimulating experience. It feels very good to finally arrive. Especially for Shippa. Having a dog on board makes all the difference. Shippa spent her first 2 years on a cargo ship where I worked. The breed, Schipperke, can´t get seasick and they are bred for being on boats. That makes it a lot easier. Like you see, we still need to give her a fair share of attention, at least on this first leg of the journey. Im´m glad you liked the mooring animations. My favourite hobby is to tie her down on some new rocks like this. I will keep that aspect for future projects. Thanks for your fine feedback! It gives me extra motivation to get going with the next video! Take care!

Thank you Aleks! Yes I am always quite nervous before starting a job with the engine. It felt very good to spend some time down there to get to know the old thing a bit better.. Its a Finnish engine, Valmet. 6 cylinders and 120 hp.

Tack Knudan! Haha du har rätt, det var tider det. Hade man vetat att man 15 år senare skulle sitta och skruva i en båt hade man haft svårt att tro det ❤️

Thank you! Yes it's easy to long for far away places so much that you miss the beauty of your own country.

Dear Reid, thank you! Haha yes the seascape was a good option in these times. We basically forgot about the pandemic which was quite relieving.

Thanks for watching!

Thank you Markus! That gives me motivation to hear.

Haha Scandinavian deadpan, greatly put. Thank you, and thank you for leaving this nice comment. It means a lot to hear that the video can offer someone pleasure.

I agree, one of the most remarkable stories of survival without doubt. The rapid weather changes on South Georgia is what makes it all so challenging. The location in the South Atlantic is generally very windy, from the southwest. The wind finds its way through the valleys with a funnelling effect. The katabatic winds are also very present and a result of air cooling down above the glaciers. Becoming more heavy, it falls down the slopes at extreme speeds. There is rarely any constant wind but most often you just see the surface being whipped up to foam close to the shore. If this happens during zodiac operations you will have to act quickly. These winds rarely develop any extreme seas though as its mostly offshore or only blowing for a short duration of time. It gives me a lot of motivation to hear that you enjoyed the video, thank you!

Wow, thank you for letting me know that you liked it! I agree, that was a totally different game than the one we play today. I just finished episode II, will upload right now. Regards, Johan

Heey mate! Good to see you here, and thank you for letting me know you enjoyed it. The cruise when you guys were here was so amazing, such an interested and interesting group of guests. We talk about you and your family sometimes on the Bridge. Take care until we meet again!

Thx Maestro!

Thank you! I'm that you enjoyed it.

Eller hur Jenny! Innan jag kom dit hade jag enorma förväntningar på denna mystiska man och de överträffades med hästlängder. Att han dessutom fyllde 76 år och fortfarande bygger båtar var otroligt. Jag besökte honom i somras med och han höll på med ett mindre bygge då.

Vilka fina ord Jakob! Jag har arbetat valdigt mycket med dessa filmerna, det var sa mycket svarare an jag hade vantat mig. Att hora att de kan inspirera folk och att den akta kanslan kommit fram gor att det hela var vart det. Kommer fortsatta filma aventyren. Halsningar fran… KAP HORN!

@@yggdrasail Javisst, det blir inte bara så lätt som att bara dokumentera utan mer en känsla av en riktig produktion! Wow det är rätt långt söderut, lycka till!

@@SuperJacke1997 Tack. Ja det ar langt soderut, har dock ej seglat hit utan ar har med fartyget jag arbetar pa, National Geographic Orion. Stiltje och stralande sol, valdigt ovanligt for att vara har!

Ja just det, såg det på Instagram! Coolt som bara den. Forskningsresa typ? Du är också utbildad kapten va? Vilket ställe att vara på vet du, vilket liv man kan ha! Förresten, slog till på en till båt i Marseille förra året, renoverade invändigt och sålde när pengarna tog slut. Otrolig erfarenhet o så kul att lära sig på det sättet, en process du känner mkt väl ;)

@@SuperJacke1997 Nej vi tar 100 passagerare, ibland hjalper vi nagra forskare som vi kor ut till stationer eller till vildmarken. Ja det ar jag, arbetar som styrman har. Vadligt spannande att fa lara sig om dessa omraden, sa man kan segla hit senare. Haftigt att du kor vidare pa din bana med! Du far folja med pa Yggdra ocksa vid nat tillfalle!

Tack for det! Kanske, du kan skriva till mig pa Instagram till exempel sa kan vi se framover! Yggdraship

Tack ! Nej jag råkade ha kameran på mig då, undrar vad han säger?

kommer bara ihåg problem problem problem
