It's the journey that is important Erik, not the destination, and what a hell of a journey you are having. You'll get to Greenland eventually, but it's great fun following the passages on your journey in the meantime.
@@erikaanderaa but a lot less than before and always better to come home safely to think and dream again what can be done better. All the best from germany
You're one of the "giant adventurers" that I follow on RUclips. What impresses me the most is that although you are far more brave and courageous than the rest of us, and no matter how focused you are on reaching your goals, you at the same time have the mental capacity to assess risks and to know when you should back down. My deepest respect!
Erik, as Churchill once said: „Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts“. My highest admiration for you and Tessy to do what you are doing! You will succeed and we will see it happen! Fair winds captain!
Should you do it again? Only you can know that Erik, but if you decided to try again, you will have the support of tens of thousands of people cheering you on. Good luck!
Erik, a disappointment for sure, but as a seaman, you know you can't dictate things and you made the right decision. I really do appreciate the care you take with the photography, and the results show it, making your site absolutely top notch. We've been with you for the first two tries and plan to come along if you do another one.
Imagine doing something so challenging that your decision to sail home early 1200+ miles across dangerous seas is considered the ‘safe’ decision 😂 Let that sink in Erik The Viking. You are doing things most cannot fathom. You are a source for inspiration and your videos are top notch. Not sure if you still create them 100% on your own but wow, definitely have a professional feel to them. Congratulations on getting home safe and planning your next attempt. That was not a given.
Take care of your health first Eric.This is the most important thing.The world will wait for a while.I'm sure we'll see You on great adventures many times in the near future.Be patient.Take care.
It doesn't matter Erik. I congratulate you. You made a decision with the right arguments. We must not force fate when it wants to tell us something. Cheer up and I look forward to your next adventure. Greetings, and FAIR WINDS!!! ✌️💥⛵️
The back injury is most likely due to the time you spent in hospital. That weakens your core muscles in the floor of your pelvis. I've had a similar situation. Moving is so critical to future mobility. Good decision, but very very hard. Yes, do it again.
Ive sailed between Iceland and Greenland many times when i worked as a fisherman from Iceland and i think you definitely made the right choice. Weather up near Scoresby sound can be brutal in the fall and the changes can happen so fast. Greenland icecap can really mess with the weather there and weather can go from being pleasant to 60+ knots in no time
You have tried to solo sail to Greenland three times. That is three times more than most people on earth, even most sailors *ever* will. It's not a defeat unless you surrender, there will be another summer!
Eric there will be a next time of that I have no doubt. Please keep making these wonderful programmes. They should be on Discovery Channel or such like. Would be good to have a sailing channel on digital tv channel where these kind of of YT productions can find a home and perhaps an even bigger audience. In the meantime “In War, Resolution; In Defeat, Defiance; In Victory, Magnanimity; and in Peace, Good Will.” Churchill
Each attempt to get to Greenland is an adventure in itself. Alone, you push yourself and your little boat in such immense and potentially inhospitable seas and you make such interesting videos, that I for one will never get tired of this channel, even if you have to make 100 attempts more.
I've said before, I'm not a sailor. But I love your youtube channel. Grit, determination. Beautiful scenery and so at one with nature. I'm sure most viewers will feel sad along with you as I do. This is not a failure though, you cannot control nature and living to try again is the most important lesson from this that can be learned. See you next season.
I spent many years climbing mountains and found out that the adventure was much more rewarding and challenging than our goal. But keep the spirit and that will prevail. Thanks for letting me be a part of an incredible exploration!
You made the right decision Erik... let's go to Spain and the Azores next season brother, we're with you all the way...! Just remember: ain't nobody messin' with you, but you... NBJS!
Being a sailor can do things to you. It can make you practical. It can make you a dreamer. It can make you a hard-headed realist and it can make you a bit romantic and a little superstitious. It can make you goal-oriented and relentless and it can make you dispassionate and philosophical. Best not to succumb to "get-there-itis." It's the Number One cause of heartache and disaster in aviation and the nautical. You'll get there when the time and circumstances are right and not beforetime. I look forward to the videos to come. Bon voyage.
Erik, we admire you so much that no matter you're going to make through or not. Of course we hope you can get to Greenland on next attempt, but don't worry, we'll be following you wherever you go! 🙌😉
Don't worry my friend, persistence is the key! I sailed from Antigua to Greenland (Disco Island) and then to Europe on a much bigger yacht with more people and it was challenging. You doing it alone is such a huge adventure, and better to try again when the odds are in your favor!
So sorry you couldn't make it to Greenland. Very frustrating I guess but hope you try again. Thank you so much for posting theses videos of your sailing adventures. Amazing and so inspirational.
Erik, give yourself a break, give the world a break and know that you are doing great. Smart decision in the face of such adversity. Life is try and try again.
Ah! Erik, as you said, so close yet so far away, I've been watching since the start of the channel but have never made a comment until now, I think I speak for all when I say I can't wait for you to make it to Greenland one day, the story telling you do in these videos is truly fantastic and to film so much while handling Tessie in the sorts of weather we all know you love is a testament to your commitment and shear will to conquer all challanges before you. I have loved following every journey you make, from small to big, you inspire me and so many others with your courage and strength and I hope to see you sailing for many more years to come (health be willing), just know that even when you're alone out there on the briny blue, that thousands of people sail with you through your videos. A true viking in spirit and form, your ancestors would be proud!
It takes courage to take a hard and necessary decision; especially as the return passage is no small feat either. My name is Emmanuel and I do suffer from multiple wounds though I too travel. Going back to Ukraine in two weeks, the seventh time during the last 12 months. Between now and your next attempt, you’ll have time to heal. Greenland will be for next time. Your video story telling is a saga, beautifully and truthfully shot. Fare well, Erik
and the Saga goes on. I understand your disappointment and respect your prudence. Remember there are not many brave sailor alive. Only respect for the ocean gives you another day to reach your goals. No need to press on against all odds. You are an amazing sailor and I love, love watching your adventures. Thank you!
Great job Erik. You don't need my approval but I agree with you 100%. The time was not right. Recover and heal to fight another day. Persistence is how you achieve. You may not have completed your conquest to Greenland but your adventure looks amazing from where I am. Thank you so much for being honest to yourself while we travel with you. It says a lot of your character. Thank you so much for bring us along. PS: My wife loves her shirt. NBJS, Brudda. Can't wait for our next adventure. Stay Safe
As much as I admire your tremendous sailing skills, it is your skills as a cameraman, editor, and storyteller that I am drawn to most. I appreciate you my friend. Safe travels, always. NBJS
Thank you, always an adventure. I've been feeling sick so watching you conquer the world with your health issues or suffer setbacks from goals while pushing on with life is inspirational.
Great job Erik you’re going to get there eventually you may need to fly there with a line put it on the harbour side and say to it “I’ll be back for you later” stay safe
Ohøj Erik. "We love it, Tooo". Btw the thumpnail should have said. Diesel gets it´s Revenge on the Viking and his Sailboat. but for me it´s was a Perfekt Timing, been waiting for a new vlog.. Super Great Video and editing.. And Iceland is a very Awesome place to been sick/hurt.
Again a great vid...sailing in such a small boat across the strait to Greenland is a risky proposition..everything has to be right, you will make it next time!!
Turn around Erik and see the big crowd of fans and folowers !! we're all behind you, your journey is a such a big proof of what life brings to us, every day, every moment and keep us alive. I'm so happy for you... and thanks for the best value you bring to us and the best value we owe you : Respect.
"You have to hand it to me; we're getting close..." 😆 I don't care if you make it to Greenland or not, I'm just here for the sailing! Try the Mediterranean next as there are fewer ice issues there
Erik ☺️ mam nadzieję jeszcze w tym roku kupić swoją własną łódź i wyruszyć nią w daleką podróż, mam już przygotowane prawie wszystko. Nie odpuszczę widoku fiordów oraz żeglowania po północnych wodach. Jesteś jedną z moich głównych motywacji, która mnie skłoniła do tej decyzji, wyprawy, na ten moment samotnej ☺️ gorące pozdrowienia z Polski
Erik-- We have been following you for quite some time now, and we respect you even more for making the decision to head home. Offshore passage-making, short- or single-handed is among the riskiest endeavors, and you were walking a fine line of go/no-go for a fair bit of that sail it seems. You made the right call! On another sailing-related question, we have a 12m aluminum cutter, and we would like to see how you secure your lazy running back stays. We tried heavy duty bungee cord, but it looked like yours have a line that you can snug them up with. How do you rig that, would you be willing to share a drawing or picture? Cheers for making some legit sailing content! Christopher and Ivana
Wonderful adventure that never ends! It is a very good feature to be able to stop when it is necessary. Eric, maybe you'll think about a teammate that will share new trip with you? Stay safe and healthy! Good luck!
Fantastic video! The most difficult decisions to make are those against ourselves - our desires and the mission goal. Yet, we need to respect nature if we want to succeed, be a part of the nature around us and survive. I am very sure that you going to be in Greenland one day. Tusen takk for another beautiful video.
Thank you for taking me on your journey. My injuries will not allow it. So I slowly climb mountains. I've seen every vid you published and watch em again when I need a kick. You sail and I walk. I walk because you sail. Jimigqich from canada
As a person with chronic pain your series inspires me. Next time! Cheers! Never give up. Sailing onward and forward enjoying the simple things in life.
It is not the destination but the journey. Every attempt equals gains in knowledge and as long as the will to do this fantastic journey exists you will one day complete it. Then the next adventure begins! Great videos and great content are what make NBJS great!
Your journey may not be exactly what and were you plan but every journey is a fantastic journey for an isolated Midwestern old lady featuring beautiful islands and towns I will never see. Your views are so peaceful and educational! I never had a bucket list, but I do now! Eat seafood in Island! God speed and take care!🤠
@@tree4408 Talkeetna awaits me on the other side of the rainbow bridge. We now have a black flat coat retriever and a little chorkie. Oh and sorta kinda a cat that took to us. Peace and a safe life journey to you.
Don't worry about the time it takes for a video, we can all wait, but you achieving your dream and taking us all on your dream, I've put my timeline on July 2024 to circumnavigate the world
For me yours is the best boating video on RUclips. I follow as many as I can from narrow boats in the UK to luxury gin palaces for sale. But yours has that spirit of adventure with great addictive footage and commentary
We're never disappointed with your decisions Erik. Greenland is not going anywhere. We know you will return to your challenges when you can. Great video work!
Go Up ERik. The dream will be true. Your journey is amazing and show everyone that you only need to have faith on you to get it done, and to be over any difficoulties. Keep going friend!!!
Does not meter how many attempts you have, it matters that you never give up and show your passion to the ocean 🌊 you will get your chance, stay strong and focus ❤
Going to Greeland is your greater dream? So, don't give up. Of coutse it sucks a lot, so close and also so far, but we always have the next year. I'm Brazilian and my dream is to learn most languages I can during my life. I already speak few, and nowadays I'm learning, among others, Faroese, Norwegian and Swedish. It is hard to study alone, but I don't give.
Erik I'm back to see more of your adventures. Your passages are like a good novel and they keep me close while waiting for your next one. I hope your health issues get stable and your able to take on the next challenge. Be safe in the icy waters of the North.
I'm glad you decided to leave Greenland for next time. To be honest, it's more of a big think for you than us. We just like seeing you sail the north atlantic. Stay safe and for God's sake, tether yourself to the boat.
Well that's sailing, have a goal to go for, but you can enjoy even if the goal changes. Having a good time and doing what you love is the main goal of course👍
Your indefatigable and undefeatable spirit is an inspiration, Erik! As a landbound human living with similar physical challenges (how I winced when you hurt your back!), who can only dream of such adventures, you are an inspiration and a dream. I love your videos and forthright honesty. Your cinematography is superb. You are uplifting, Erik, and you help me find my own North Star. Thank you for your beautiful, honest, gorgeous videos. I wish you success and a complete remission. All the best to you! and NBJS is perfect. You are a shining star. THANK YOU.
It's the journey that is important Erik, not the destination, and what a hell of a journey you are having. You'll get to Greenland eventually, but it's great fun following the passages on your journey in the meantime.
Well said and from experience.
@@erikaanderaa but a lot less than before and always better to come home safely to think and dream again what can be done better.

Completamente de acordo.
This is so true
Mr Lane spoke well. The journey is a pleasure to watch - as will be the many chapters that follow. Best wishes for recovery from the health setbacks.
Erik. Things happen for a reason. I am glad you made what you did. And enjoy watching. Take care my friend.
Correct call in changing your plans.
There is always another day.

je peux m'ajouter à ce commentaire ?!
Yep so say all of us!! Much respect Erik and good luck with your future adventures.😊😊
Real Gambler,know when to fold!!
TRUTH WARRIORS are the BRAVEST!!
Get strong - Scoresby Sound will still be there next year!
“That’s just the way it is”.
Eric, you will get there. We will be with you. Enjoy the beers and the people along the way.
Pls, remember always safety first. It is better to be safe than sorry!
Erik, as Churchill once said: „Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts“. My highest admiration for you and Tessy to do what you are doing! You will succeed and we will see it happen! Fair winds captain!
I just loved this video. Fabulous!
Should you do it again? Only you can know that Erik, but if you decided to try again, you will have the support of tens of thousands of people cheering you on. Good luck!
Do not give up. Your determination will win.

Do not give up. You will yet reach Greenland and that will be a great moment.
This has been a brilliant series. Can't wait to watch more. Good decisions are never failure!
Being a sailor can do things to you. It can make you practical. It can make you a dreamer. It can make you a hard-headed realist and it can make you a bit romantic and a little superstitious. It can make you goal-oriented and relentless and it can make you dispassionate and philosophical.
Best not to succumb to "get-there-itis." It's the Number One cause of heartache and disaster in aviation and the nautical. You'll get there when the time and circumstances are right and not beforetime.

I’m sure this been said before but there are old sailors and reckless sailors, but there are no old reckless sailors. Stay safe, Erik!
Erik, we admire you so much that no matter you're going to make through or not. Of course we hope you can get to Greenland on next attempt, but don't worry, we'll be following you wherever you go! 🙌😉
So sorry to hear the struggles you have experienced. The viking warrior laid low for a while. You will be back.
Don't worry my friend, persistence is the key! I sailed from Antigua to Greenland (Disco Island) and then to Europe on a much bigger yacht with more people and it was challenging. You doing it alone is such a huge adventure, and better to try again when the odds are in your favor!
Safety first, fun second, destination third. Persistence will get you there when everything is aligned.
You made the Right Choice! The Best sailors are the ones that return home ... safe ...
in my opinion you've made the only decision you could make, the risk was far higher than the benefits. congratulations, great sailor.
You made the right decision. Too many on here make the wrong decisions for clicks, likes, etc.
So sorry you couldn't make it to Greenland. Very frustrating I guess but hope you try again. Thank you so much for posting theses videos of your sailing adventures. Amazing and so inspirational.
Erik, give yourself a break, give the world a break and know that you are doing great. Smart decision in the face of such adversity. Life is try and try again.

You’re a young man still and a brave one at that. You will get there!
Hey more Greenland attempts just means more videos for us! Hope your health holds up!
It takes courage to take a hard and necessary decision; especially as the return passage is no small feat either. My name is Emmanuel and I do suffer from multiple wounds though I too travel. Going back to Ukraine in two weeks, the seventh time during the last 12 months. Between now and your next attempt, you’ll have time to heal. Greenland will be for next time.

Don't worry, get well. Next summer we will be here waiting for your videos. Take care and strength that back Erik.👍💪💪
Tough decision, but surely the right one. As always, beautiful sailing and inspiring images!

It is not a defeat, but a preparation for your goal. "Constancy will lead you to victory".

Great job Erik you’re going to get there eventually you may need to fly there with a line put it on the harbour side and say to it “I’ll be back for you later” stay safe

So sorry of the bad luck in not being able to make Greenland. Still another wonderful video, love your outlook on life.

On another sailing-related question, we have a 12m aluminum cutter, and we would like to see how you secure your lazy running back stays. We tried heavy duty bungee cord, but it looked like yours have a line that you can snug them up with. How do you rig that, would you be willing to share a drawing or picture?

Amazing as always! I think sailing is eventually all about changing plans by weather. You'll make it some day! 💪🏻

I'm glad you decided to leave Greenland for next time. To be honest, it's more of a big think for you than us. We just like seeing you sail the north atlantic. Stay safe and for God's sake, tether yourself to the boat.
Thanks for the series! Watching episode 7 is going to be a great way to end the weekend. Regards to you all the way from Malta.
May God Bless You, Eric
. We hope to sail with you during the 1000 Year Reign. 🇧🇻
I am not a sailor, but I love your adventures Erik. Keep up the great work!

Well that's sailing, have a goal to go for, but you can enjoy even if the goal changes. Having a good time and doing what you love is the main goal of course👍
Your indefatigable and undefeatable spirit is an inspiration, Erik! As a landbound human living with similar physical challenges (how I winced when you hurt your back!), who can only dream of such adventures, you are an inspiration and a dream. I love your videos and forthright honesty. Your cinematography is superb. You are uplifting, Erik, and you help me find my own North Star. Thank you for your beautiful, honest, gorgeous videos. I wish you success and a complete remission. All the best to you! and NBJS is perfect. You are a shining star. THANK YOU.
Good decision. That's a cool looking gennaker, but it's a light wind sail... I take a deep breath every time I see you put it up.
