    "Faroes are suspiciously warm!!!" I suspect only a Finn could say that. Respect to Sohvi, she's a trooper...

  • @sailingdiamondlife
    @sailingdiamondlife 3 года назад +63

    Sohvi - 'So Enjoyable' and 'I'm done with the boat life' - best lines so far and followed by - Juho - ' yea if it's free then I'll do it' - classic yachtie talk... Well done team, enjoy the winter..

    • @AlluringArctic
      @AlluringArctic  3 года назад +19

      hehe, Sohvi does come up with the one liners...! "free" there actually meant "vacant", although it was free as well (as in they did not charge us in the end)

    C’mon folks and give this crazy guys a thumbs up! 👍🏽
    After all their efforts sharing this they are worth a 👍🏽, don’t you think?

      And also share their channel with others who might be interested in nice people traveling more interesting places doing more interesting things and showing it with quality.

      There are already 1.1 K thumbs up on the same day of publication. It takes time for a new YT channel gather momentum no matter how exceptional it is. It is off to a good start.

      @captainchristianguy3307 2 года назад

      Yes, absolutely. I am not as brave. I may brave sailing south where its warm. Going north in the winter? I consider that very brave. The Atlantic in the winter is no joke.

  • @mikewoodard6984
    @mikewoodard6984 3 года назад +5

    It's tough being seasick and plus an unfamiliar port, poorly marked, pitch black, and sleep deprived. A lot going on there in a such a short passage. You guys and gals are tough. Good work.

  • @tree4408

  • @nickbenfell4327
    @nickbenfell4327 Год назад +6

    These are the three stages of seasickness.
    1. You feel really really crook and miserable.
    2. You feel so bad you get scared you are going to die.
    3. You feel so bad you get scared you are not going to die.
    Another brilliant video.

  • @roncanizares9966
    @roncanizares9966 3 года назад +2

    Well done. Sohvi: If you never want to be sea sick again, buy and take Stugeron 15 mg tablets. Take 2 the night before departure and then 1 every 8 hours of your trip. They are the offshore sailor's best friend. The can be purchases at pharmacies in Britain or Commonwealth (or former Commonwealth) countries. Perhaps you can find them on the internet. Many off shore racers use them. And there are no side affects, unlike the patch or Dramamine.

  • @Joostdw
    @Joostdw 3 года назад +6

    Hi Juho and Sohvi, thanks again for taking us into ur adventures. Respect for your optimism !
    Jealousy is a emotion i try to avoid. But in this case...... :-)

  • @barrywaters6336
    @barrywaters6336 3 года назад +11

    Well done guys! While serving in the British Navy we were used as test dummies for a seasickness drug called Stugeron (in UK). It works extremely well. My sea sick wife used them when we sailed to Antarctica and I was amazed to see her eating and drinking during a rough crossing of the Drakes Passage. The drug freezes the fluid in the ear "tubes" which stops the brain from getting mixed sensations. (Eyes see no movement when down below but ears sense the motion). I think they sell a version of the drug as a small patch you apply under your ear too. Looking forward to the next video.

  • @SailingSnowGum
    @SailingSnowGum 3 года назад +1

    Sohvi, you and Carolyn should have a talk about what’s best to eat after a passage like this. Lots of chocolate croissants in France, is one suggestion from the Admiral. 😃🥐 Regards from Rick and Carolyn on Snow Gum.

  • @Bruin4Life
    @Bruin4Life 3 года назад +11

    Glad that you had a safe sail to Iceland, but sorry that Sohvi suffered seasickness. I know from personal experience that seasickness is no fun. Now I take Meclizine before sailing to prevent seasickness if it looks a little rough out there. Take care and have a safe winter in Iceland.

    • @stevenr8606
      @stevenr8606 3 года назад

      On seasickness: I never, well once, got Seasick. It was in relatively small seas with lite winds. ➡️ Only happened looking forward.⬅️ Unfortunately, had to help pull the forward sail down! Walking backwards was a new experience!

    I LOVE THIS SAILING VESSEL !!!

  • @Ken-rk3by
    @Ken-rk3by 2 года назад

    Here's a tip if you get some rain-ex or something similar the rain will shed right off the windows making it a lot easier to see, it also works with sea spray. Happy Sailing don't freeze.

  • @jennifermackinnon6982

You two are extremely mature & thoughtful..& quite charming ! Here's a toast..from the seashore town Carmel in central California..a nice Ca.

    Hei Juho, we bumped into you in Torshavn at Etika in August, the Sushi restaurant out of all places, when you left and we entered. We were in stopover to IS from DE on M/S Norröna with our VW van and my 9yr old son recognized you immediately. "Ist das nicht der alte Segler auf RUclips, der mit den wilden Haaren?" - "Yes, he must have been the arktischer Segler with verrücktem Hair", I said and so we went into Etika to immediately get rejected as we had no reservation, the hotdogs up the street were not bad at the end :-).
