Tapio really warmed up by the end of the video! Please thank him for doing the interview in English!
Wow. What an interview! I could listen to more of this man’s sailing story. He seems well prepared and yet still almost didn’t make it out of that harrowing experience. And yet willing to share the pain of his loss in such a candid way. ✌️
❤
Good luck, Tapio. Thank you for sharing your experience and new sailboat with us.
Love your current style, please don't change too much, you have a great balance between sailing, boat work and fabulous scenery 😊
What a very frightening experience Tapio had. The will for survival was strong and so glad he survived it. In a way it makes you wonder what hit his sail boat. Very good interview and I wish him and his crew a safe and successful race. Texas.
Thank you for talking with Tapio, Juho! This was entertaining, educational, and such a compelling story. Well done.
Great episode Juho. What a treat with the Tapico interview and to hear his best thinking on the catastrophic sinking of his vessel during the Golden Globe Race and to get a complete tour of his current vessel.
indeed. I have been wanting to hear his ideas and opinion on this for so long now.
What a great topic for a sailing video for your channel. Good luck to Tapio and his exquisitely beautiful sailboat.
Perfect timing since the OGR starts tomorrow! Great interview. Best of luck to Tapio and Galiana! 🖤🌎
The 'limit' you say you've reached in your video production is actually pretty damn high, Juho. After all, it's mostly about the content! Great interview with, Tapio - and his new boat is impressive. Best wishes to him and his crew, for a safe and successful OGR.
So glad to hear from Tapio again. I look forward to following his upcoming race. I almost wish I could be on his team but it's much harder to go around the world than he lets on...
Juho this was a really great interview. Tapio's OGR experience was amazing - the sailors that participate in that race are incredible and to get a first hand interview of a critical event is a very sobering experience for a sailor. That modified Swan 55 is so awesome - those yachts are just beautiful. Good luck on the extra help with editing. I think you are doing a great job but there is always room for improvement. Thanks for sharing.
The difference between that Blue Water Yacht and whats for sale, and Claiming blue water are like night and day..i realise hes going racing, but even just the handholds, sleeping arrangements really should be a lesson to all..fantastic boat and a real eyeopener of a story about what could go wrong. Thanks for that, it made it very real for me.
It is great to hear and see these episodes. Adventure lives within every man's soul. Even the mention of an adventure is exhilarating.
We passed by Galiana a few times this spring in HKI waters, she's majestic and beautiful - really nice to get an in-person tour and conversation with Tapio - kiitos!
Love your videos, following along. Lived in Kodiak 25 years. Skippered crab boats in Bering Sea. Your Prince William Sound sailing brought back good memories. Safe travels look forward to more videos.
Having sailed on a Swan 43 - this is a great boat
Well, I only know two (male) Finnish sailors, and here they are together! Great walk around, interesting to hear the fate of Asteria first hand, and of course the hard learned safety tips!
Awesome video. Very sweet boat. His sinking story was unbelievable. Thanks for the video .
This is one of the most interesting sailing videos i have ever watched, maybe the best. I could have listened to Tapio for hours. What a gracious Man and such a wealth of real world knowledge. It must have been heartbreaking to loose his sailboat, but its a risk we all face i guess no matter how well prepared we are, or how well we think out sailboats are prepared. Fantastic! Thank you Juho and Sohvi.
❤ I own a S&S Swan, 41ft, and I love to follow your videos and adventures. But this one is special to me as the 55ft is a bigger version of my boat that I renewed entirely. So it is super interesting to see Tapio’s version of it! THANK YOU SO MUCH for this gem! ❤
Really nice to see a true blue water boat, instead of the anchor queens we usually see, with their roller skating rink salons. I love his philosophy of deliberately making the interior (and the cockpit) cramped. It reminds me of that old saying: "You can't fall off the floor."
What a lovely boat! So much character! By the way, don't worry about the quality of your videos. Like many others, I thoroughly enjoy them. Good stuff.
Your videos are the best on utube ,and I can't see how they could be better then they are.
I didn't expect this. But, still, it was very engrossing. I've never heard a story, told by an eye witness, about the sinking of a sailboat! Scary stuff ! ! ! ! !
Erittäin mielenkiintoinen keskustelu. Onnea kisaan Tapiolle!
Laughed at that totally finnish reaction when that ships horn sounded. Oh well, good pause to take a drink. Epic video, and Tapio of course is a legend!
I'm not a sailor at all, but I love this. Interesting stories, and what a beautiful vessel. Thanks!
What a beautiful boat. Reminds me of a Swan 44 I was part of the crew in my youth, my first blue water sailboat, that was sailed around the Caribbean and the owner sailed it twice around the world.
Thanks for the show.
Juho, I'm gonna have to beg to differ with you about the quality of your videos. I honestly would prefer that you don't change a thing in how you express yourself in your work. That is specifically why I look forward to watching each new release. If I wanted to watch a polished, professionally produced video then I would just go to cable TV. Polished and professional is unfortunately also boring and impersonal. Please don't change a thing man, you're doing an amazing job serious. I wish I could have gotten in touch with you guys when you were here in California. I would have really liked to help out getting the boat ready to go north. I'm pretty sure that I was real close to where you were at. Anyways thanks for this cool diversion from the normal style of video. What a crazy story! I don't think that he could have done much of anything more to make sure the boat was absolutely bullet proof yet he still sank. The ironic thing is that the guy who just jumps in an old Catalina and sails off with a couple of friends who don't know anything about sailing, doesn't have any problems at all.
Can I add that I have zero problems with your editing. Your videos are the most magical nature, sailing, skiing escape I've ever encountered. You might be undervaluing yourself.
Great video. Thank you.

Superb! Drinking lonkero on the teak deck of classic swan and having chat with Tapio Lehtinen about ocean sailing. Respect!
That's a pretty boat! I sort of followed both of Tapio's Golden Globe races and that "least unprobable" scenario does sound like a reasonable explanation for the unlikely damage that must have occurred for such a fast sinking. Only a lightning strike causing a steam explosion within moisture in a laminate could possibly compete but the weather at the time rules it out. That Swan is very pretty; the team will no doubt have a grand old time on her. I don't know a thing about sailing but that entryway arrangement seems very practical and something I would mimic if I were refitting something. Just like the mudroom of a home on land. Thanks for the tour and interview!
One of the best videos Ive watched not only on your channel, but on RUclips all together. Great to watch two Finnish legends in one video! Hearing Tapios account of the loss of Asteria was a bit sad. But thanks again for the upload 👍🏼
How cool that Tapio is actually aware of where you keep your raft.
He told him that he’s a fan and watches. I hope they will meet again when they cross paths again, it sounded like they both enjoyed each other’s company and intelligence.
tosi hyvä haastattelu ja mielenkiintoinen.
Nice to see some real sailors no Click Bait!
What a interview! That’s the best interview I’ve ever seen anyone do on a utube channel, it’s perfect for everything else that’s happening now with the “performance” part of Sailing (racing) and personally I’ve done some research about Kristin’s boat “mene -haha” (sp?) & on that race and his accident, so I was amazed to see it was him & you asked all the right questions that I wanted to know about likewise, I imagine other people are thinking the same thing about “different questions”. You did a phenomenal job of getting the real story, by letting him take his time and tell it, instead of rushing him or asking questions that weren’t relevant. Thanks, I’ll be looking forward to your next crossing, I’m hoping to see you both in another video when you cross paths……
Tapio is a legend! Great episode, keep them coming.
I wish this was posted yesterday.
I went to see the OGR race village todays and had the liberty to meet captain Tapio and was welcome aboard Galiana.
I can confirm that not only is she the most beautiful yacht in the OGR fleet. But also the best smelling yacht I visited today 😅😅😅
Thank you Juho, you are making an old sailor happy to relive such things and sad that I will never do anything but dream and remember.
Great video. I learnt a lot. Plus, your past three or four videos have really had a high standard of production. Loved them.
Very impressive interview with Tapio, and a truly wonderful boat.
Wonderful interview. Had followed the GGR with great interest and will be following the OGR also. Good luct to Galiana and good luck with the future North West Passage
Impressive interview and at the same time very educational!
Hearing what Tapio experienced with his incident on his Asteria, one could say that the saying is very true - hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. Happily he is still here to tell his story. We all could and should learn from his experience. Cheers, H.
Incredible interview!!! Many thanks for your work!
You and Tapio should sail the Northwest passage together. That would be great to see you both doing it together.
Thank you for the interview with Tapio. He is a great person and sailor.
We may never come to your part of the world and the places you travel. Your videos are outstanding, as is the music, astounding beauty, your calmness under stress, drone videos, skiing, and just your personalities, which doesn’t cover it. Facing the elements gives such a vicarious experience to those of us on the sidelines. Thank you so much. We can only support you as retired folks in our 80’s by watching.

Important and ever so interesting details of traveling offshore. This video/conversation surely RESONATES with many who hope-to/actually-do/aspire-to sail offshore. MANY THANKS to both of you for sharing your journey/thoughts/perspectives !!!
Awesome interview with Tapio! Thank you Tapio for taking the time to do this! Great job Juho!
I think your videos have been great all long. Always look forward to seeing your content.
I think you sell yourself short on the editing skills, Juho. I mean, that video of the bald eagle pooping, and then replaying it in slow motion... Wow! I don't know where you go from there. That was epic!
Great interview with Tapio. I wish him all the best and will be following his journey around the world.
Thanks for sharing Tapios Swan. Can’t wait to follow this race.
I thought that was an apartment building next to you in the beginning, until I noticed the life rafts hanging from it! 😮
I confess, I love a good boat tour, it’s actually how I found my way to your channel, you toured the boat you were on before Lumi 😅
That gentleman deserves my utmost respect - I salute you sir, your vessel went to rest peacefully, May she sleep soundly in her resting place. Any sailor whom addresses their vessel as “dear friend” is the best.
Two sailors who impress me greatly
Excellent to hear about the design rationale from a very knowledgeable and experienced sailor. Thank-you.
Thanks!
Olind Stevens sure knew how to design beautiful boats. I love yawls.Great video.
Beautiful boat and thanks to you and Tapio to share with us experience and explanation about his boat
I am lucky enough to have a Swan 47MKII.. I have spent the last 2 years bringing her back to life. She is setup for singlehanded sailing. She is strong beyond belief and I just love the boat. I can't say enough about old Swans. But to those considering an old Swan be prepared to get you hands dirty or pay for a ton of work to be done. But the end result is a noble boat. Best of luck Tapio!!
Great interview! Gorgeous Swan! ❤
Awesome video thank you so much! It was a pleasure to listen to you and Tapio talk.
Lot of classic sailing references!
Herreshoff, Paul E. Luke , Tabarly, Olin Stephens, trim tab rudder (retained on commercial jets), and of course Swan
Helpful guide from experience on how to set up and rehearse exit from boat.
This is an incredible video with tons of shared knowledge. It should be part of every sailor's library.
Brilliant! What a great boat and interview, cheers!!
Excellent presentation!
What a beauty.
And so much thoughts gone into it.
Very impressing.
Nyt ainakin seuraan OGR ⛵🌊 🩵🇫🇮 👍 !!!
Terrifying, inspirational and educational. What a treat. Thank you.
Top notch interview. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful episode. Great guest, too.
Great interview.
Good camera work
Loved the fact that you had a beer together.
Good interview. Tapio is the man.
Agreed, awesome interview with Tapio and great to see him & Galiana now in the Southern Ocean with the OGR!
A fantastic interview- thanks for sharing
GREAT interview! two of my sailing inspirations! Awesome boat!!
Fantastic video, really enjoyed the tour of the bout and interview. Just great stuff, keep up the good work!
I believe you may be selling yourself short when it comes to both your videography and editing Juho. Even as a land lubber I enjoyed the tour of the racing sail boat. As always, stay well and safe.
Excellent! Thank you for sharing your boat and your discussion with us, Tapio!
Excellent episode! Thx, Andrew
I like that interview and boat tour, nice format.
Juho, thanks for the incredible interview! Your filming and editing has been great so far, but acknowledging your limits is an evidence of a wise man...
Great episode. Thanks for sharing.
Your videos are always good. Enjoyable. Grand scenery….
Great content on this video. Very humbling listening to Tapio and yourself.Wishing you calm seas😊😢
Great to see you progress!!!
Great interview with Tapio. Your video's are great Juho.
This is a special video, I tour Tapio's Swan 55, which is entering the Ocean Globe Race (around the world). The race is starting tomorrow Sunday 10th of September. Tapio himself has experience from three other round-the-world races, two of them solo aboard his Asteria in the Golden Globe Race. We take a look at some of the features that make this Swan 55 specially suited for real bluewater sailing. In this video we also talk about how Tapio's previous boat Asteria sank and what we could all learn from that.
Hope you enjoy, and if you are not into boat tours and watching me and Tapio blabber along, I'm happy to tell you that the next video will have some really epic sailing again!
You are incredible !!!! Go finland go !!!!❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
47:30 very interesting news about Containers fault sinking from Tapio's Team Naval Archutects ! Fairly winds to bith of you allurgic team and Galliana Swann 55 .
Really well done, the experience evident in this discussion is really worth the time.
Loved this Interview. Lessons learned.... make your GRAB BAG easy to grab and go..... take care and stay safe😊😊
Great job!
Well, I think you certainly make entertaining and interesting videos. This one as well as being entertaining is particularly packed with useful information. Thankyou.
Thanks for another great video.
What a great story, and a fascinating character! Thanks for bring the Ocean Race into perspective for us, so good to hear from a participant. Congratulations on growing your team a bit as well, because it's a huge amount of work to make quality video and your standards are pretty high: I always worry that my favourite you tubers will burn out without proper support, and that would make me sad. All the best to you and the good doctor, Juho, be well.
Great story, cool guy and an awesome ship. Sad to hear he wrecked but glad he made it out alive to tell his tale. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome enter view Boat tour too👍👍
Great video and fantastic interview. What a man, and what a yacht Nautor Swan 55. Thank you
Very well done video. Good luck with your travels!
Thank You, always interesting!
Tapio is really a gentleman, nice interview, and most importantly : cheers !
Such a treat, thanks a million, very enjoyable.
