Erik, you are truly a sailor’s sailor and a Viking’s Viking. Well, we could carry that a little further, a videographer’s…. anyway, you are a storyteller extraordinaire. Congratulations on another epic voyage, well documented and, equally, well narrated. Small victories keep life interesting, even if they are won of imaginary competitions, and @23:00 I wholeheartedly agree! Life is a celebration, every single minute of it, especially when you overcome life’s challenges and make it happen. Good for you for celebrating. I’m glad to see you loving life and sharing your adventures with us. Viking on!! ❤🎉🌬️🌊👍🤗💫
what a great video ! you are really starting to become a pro at filming and narrating your videos into really great adventures , Its just a joy to watch ! safe winds
Pro status has been fully achieved and surpassed, Erik is beyond expert, even if he doesn't see it himself yet. I got full body shivers from the depth of feeling invoked within the first 30 seconds! I have no words but thank you!!!
Eric, love what you are doing! When sailing dead down wind, I recommend you run a preventer to stabilize your boom. Also, try flying the gennaker without your mainsail as you may find it flies better when you are sailing that deep. Also when picking up a mooring run your own line through the loop in the mooring line and back to the bow cleat on the other side of the bow. That way you don’t have to bring a big stinky line on board that has been living in the water. All of this you may well know, but if not happy to share. Keep up the good work.
We had fish and chips from the harbour kiosk at Tobermory and my wife puts it in the top 3 chip shop meals we've ever had along with the twice a week Jacks Chippy in Pierowall on Westray in the Orkney Islands and the Harbour Chippy in Portavogie, Northern Ireland. It's no coincidence that the best fish and chips are sold within sight of where the fish is unloaded from the boats.
Beautiful you, beautiful boat, beautiful music, beautiful water, beautiful lighthouse, stone walls & beautiful Scotland. Sail that boat in a kilt and I might faint. Cheers. Thank you for sharing. My heart beats faster. ❤
Great to see you enjoy sailing the Sound of Mull and Inner Hebrides. You didn't mention an amazing true story about the Point of Ardnamurchan. In the late 19th Century a ship sailing up the coast of Canada to Nova Scotia and Labrador was caught in a big storm, with about 90 passengers on board. The storm pushed them way out into the Atlantic, and the winds kept pushing them east. After a few weeks at sea with no idea where they were, they managed to sail past Rum until they saw the light of the Ardnamurchan Lighthouse, where they dropped anchor, as they did not have any charts. They did not even know which country they had come to - it could have been Ireland, England or maybe Iceland or Norway. A local boat captain saw them the next morning and recognised it was not a Scottish or European ship, so told the Harbour Master in Tobermory, who went to investigate, and pilot the ship safely into Tobermory. The Canadian passengers were welcomed into the village and stayed with the local people on Mull for another 6 weeks, until a captain from Glasgow who was qualified to sail the ship back to Canada was available. (the Canadian Captain was not qualified to sail back over the ocean). I cannot remember the name of the Canadian ship, or what year this happened but there is more information about this in the museum in Tobermory. Best wishes from Scotland.
Towing the dinghy! I once lost a dinghy off Lochaline (where the ferry crosses the Sound of Mull) and ever since then, the dinghy ALWAYS comes aboard, no matter how benign the conditions!
Erik, Gennerkers aren't designed for dead downwind. Try running a slightly hotter angle to keep it see. although its may involve having to put some jibes in. But it's better than rolling out or rapping it around your forstay, Also, keep slight pressure in the sail to get a tighter nicer furl. Love it all.
You are in my home waters. Great marina at Kerrara. Good wee cafe / bar. I think they include one return ferry to the town. I was sheltering against a F8, not the lovely calm night you had.
Really enjoyable to watch, your drone skills in 20-25 knots are seriously impressive. I also liked the facts about the lighthouse construction etc and that you gave the kite a go but sensibly got rid of it before it turned into a mess! Editing is just seamless too, makes it so easy to watch. Keep it up!
Hi, a sound is like a funnel, you must always count on more winds there. If you pull a dinghi behind your boat, make sure, that the length of the rope is just so long, that your dinghi is running down your sternwave, not running up, in this way it costs you much less speed.
Thanks for yet another great video. Not sure that was a C130 Hercules, though - looked more like a A400M (Mr Pedant speaking)...does much the same job. A C130 replacement I believe...
What a wonderful video Erik. I have sailed these waters for most of my adult life and it is truly great to see someone of your skill enjoy our beautiful islands and lochs. I can’t wait for the next one!! Thank you so much.
You've reminded me of a wee 4 day cruise I took last year. I was on one of the tiny cruise ships that are moored at Oban Marina. The boat was called Glen Etive. Had the same crazy seas you had along the Sound of Mull and were glad to drop anchor in a wee lochan where we were able to buy mussels. Thanks for reviving the memory.
Really enjoyed that one Erik. Specially seeing you working the sails and getting the best out of Tessie. (Always a good feeling overhauling another boat).
Erik, you never fail to impress. I especially appreciate your no BS drama that most others seem to think that is necessary to attract viewers. Just sailing. Just water borne adventures and beautiful port visits. I look forward to your adventures every Sunday morning while enjoying my coffee and envying your sea faring life. Take care brother and stay safe.
Excellent episode.. Aaron Dolan plays outstanding pieces for background pipes . Breathtaking views - Scottish coastline is renowned for it's picturesque beauty Needless to say Scotland, from the 8th to 15 century was colonized by vikings from Scandinavia and Norway, leaving a fair percentage of scots, Viking descended
amazing amazing. You are a legend and I am after two years following you ⛵️ I did the route you did and am doing, I started from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Shetland, Paula. Fair Island Orkney in Scotland I was 4 months. Today I anchor in France. The journey stopped on Black Day 7/10 the day Hamas attacked Israel Thank you for inspiring me 🙏🙏⛵️
Watching your videos is so much fun. As you go along your journey we get to see beautiful coasts and towns. We also feel the excitement and get anxious as waves grow bigger and wind blows harder. Thank you for dragging us into your journeys with your videos. Sail safely.
Another great video it’s amazing seeing this area I know so well especially with your great drone camera work . Your doing a great job helping the Scottish tourist board Where a lot of Scandinavian sailors over in Scotland sailing this year
Love your channel, quality filming, editing, sailing and music, thank you for all of your hard work. One suggestion, have 2 lines on your dinghy. I have seen two other channels where they had one line and lost theirs so they have two lines now, connected to two different points on the dingy :)
One of the most beautiful parts of the world. I lived in Oban for a few years in the 1970s. And if you can support the RNLI, you really should. Next year is the RNLI's 200th anniversary. A really worthwhile charity.
welcome to scotland thanks for showing off my home waters many ive spent many happy years around these islands.. lol the sound of mull is always full of wind shifts and surprises.
Hei hei Erik, the vids are getting better and better... Double E: educating and entertaining... I know it was August but still way too cold for me despite all the years I lived in Noreg... Laff... Anyway, glad to see you are in good health both you and Tessie... Another Norsk sailor from Tønsberg sailing a huge Bavaria did a vid on the perils of flying the Jib in Force7 and above... Nothing like the Nordic sailors... Fair Winds...
Great to see you are enjoying my homeland, got to agree clyde crusing club books are excellent source of information 👏. Thanks for the video looking forward to the next one 👍⛵🏴
I love your videos sitting at home in a warm room with a glass of whine. Im Sweden The Baltic sea i sail 5-6 months a year , the rest i live in Barcelona . To cold for me, but your videos are great. Be careful 👍👍
That brought back some great memories. I had a fantastic time in that area in 2021 and 2022, I was up and down the Sound of Mull many times. Torridon on the mainland was particularly nice.
WOW..that was another amazing and beautiful vlog of your great trip to so beautiful Scotland Erik. I liked it very much❤ I can imagine that afterwards you are also still astonished by the drone footage seeing the surounding from your boat. Only small recognition correcting from this polemologist&skipper..was a Made in EUrope A400M transport plane of RAF ;-) Bravely forward and sail on today's wind, yesterday's wind will no longer take you forward, tomorrow's wind may stay out, so sail on today's wind..or at least try😅😊
Maaaaaan, that was unbelievable! Amazing video again, great drone shots. Can't wait to see the next part through Scotland. Congratulations to you for doing this sailing while filming. Unreal...
That was fabulous as usual Erik. I loved the trip alongside you. The St Kilda visit was amazing. To think that you follow the Vikings is so very special. Thanks 🙏 again for brilliance x
Excellent videos. We were up in Tobermory and Oban at the same time as you in early Aug, doing West Highland Yachting Week. It was quite "bouncy" at Tobs on the evening of 3 Aug! You also had an easier sail into Rum than we did a few years back! Keep the videos coming in.
I love the Music, it matches with the environment and of course You. That little island was beautiful, I can’t imagine anyone preferring the marina to that view. I hope you’re having a Merry Christmas ! 🎄
I love it up around there , I am glad you are enjoying Scotland though I would have thought it is similar to Norway in a lot of ways and a lot of the Scottish people are mostly descended from Viking settlers themselves , Oban is lovely and has Craigs folly over looking it on the hill above and Tobermory with its famous galleon wreck and the Gulf of Corryvreckan whirlpool found between Jura and Scarba .
Extremely beautiful, thanks for sharing. Lots of good memories around the scenic village of Oban from a visit by car some years ago. I have to charter a boat up there one day, and sail the area myself.
Not only good to push the limits for your self confidence but you need to learn how the boat can perform / handle the extreme conditions. Another great video Erik.
Great drone footage in this one and some exciting sailing! Careful with that gennaker though. When the boat starts to roll from side to side in strong winds with the gennaker up, you’re close to doing what’s called a ‘Chinese gybe’, which will cause Tessie to fully broach and maybe break some rigging. Best to err on the side of caution! Hey, when two sailboats see each other with sails up, it’s a race! I’m a good tactician onboard and have beaten faster boats by using a better strategy! Glad you finally found a calm anchorage and a cold beer after an exciting day of sailing. Got my burgee and will fly it with pride next spring during sailing season. There’s a 2000’ cliff called Jaw Point that I plan to sail to next season and get some drone footage of. Thnx for keeping me inspired during the off season!
I'm just about to begin waiting out winter here, might have to head south next winter, your videos are always inspiring, one reason or part of the reason I bought an old sailboat last summer, there is no going back now lol , I'm hooked ☠️✌️

So nice to know, thank you so much!@@Fensmania
Yes, EXCELLENT drone shots.
You look happy Erik. Thank you for the movie production quality footage. The drone shots are epic!
23:10 that's a happy sailor

It's no coincidence that the best fish and chips are sold within sight of where the fish is unloaded from the boats.
I used to sail up there, before marinas and mooring bouys in all the best anchoring places. I don't like these developments due to cost.
Beautiful you, beautiful boat, beautiful music, beautiful water, beautiful lighthouse, stone walls & beautiful Scotland. Sail that boat in a kilt and I might faint. Cheers.
Thank you for sharing. My heart beats faster. ❤

I was going to post the same … but the channel is narrow … so I guess that’s the explanation?
Thank you Erik. I have become a big fan of your inspirational videos and more so of your story telling and editing.
....And shipwreck is sweet to me
in this Scottish sea!
Thank you Erik for sharing your beautiful journeys with us. Good wind
That gennaker looks fierce on your boat! Cheers to Rolly Tasker
Your voiceovers are some of the best on YT.
I have seen many of these places in the highlands and islands of Scotland, but never quite like this before👌. Absolutely stunning Erik
Awesome as always✊
👏🏻
Spectacular. The way its filmed the landscape the music! 👍👍💯
What a beautifull environment. Really awesome!!⛵⛵⛵
You are in my home waters. Great marina at Kerrara. Good wee cafe / bar. I think they include one return ferry to the town. I was sheltering against a F8, not the lovely calm night you had.
Mr.Erik..is always a pleasure to see you navigating through the north... Please don't stop.
Really enjoyable to watch, your drone skills in 20-25 knots are seriously impressive.

I took a shot!😅 Thanks for the correction!
@@erikaanderaa Globemaster C17. Another pedant. 🙂Enjoyed this episode very much. Thank you.
Hmmm Globemaster C17 has jet engines. This one has propellors. Oh dear. I forgot this a sailing channel not a plane spotters channel!!
I hang my head in shame. It is indeed an A400. I blame the whisky.
Dinghy was surfing like 'Wheeeee!!!' while you were flying gennaker:)
you are making me homesick eric ,ive sailed and scuba dived a lot of the places that you have filmed on this series
What a wonderful video Erik. I have sailed these waters for most of my adult life and it is truly great to see someone of your skill enjoy our beautiful islands and lochs. I can’t wait for the next one!! Thank you so much.
Glad you loved the beautiful west coast of Scotland, wonderful for sail and on land.
getting 8 knots with the gennaker on a boat with a hull speed of 6.5 knots is some achievement
The current and wind changes sailing to Oban was frightening but you make it look so easy..Beautiful 👍
You've reminded me of a wee 4 day cruise I took last year. I was on one of the tiny cruise ships that are moored at Oban Marina. The boat was called Glen Etive. Had the same crazy seas you had along the Sound of Mull and were glad to drop anchor in a wee lochan where we were able to buy mussels. Thanks for reviving the memory.
Thank you for not disrupting the regatta!
Another great chapter. Loved seeing the scenery of this gorgeous place.
Really enjoyed that one Erik. Specially seeing you working the sails and getting the best out of Tessie. (Always a good feeling overhauling another boat).
The little Scottish towns look so lovely 🥰
Glorious video btw. The lack of "boat channel" stuff on Scotland's West coast is always remarkable.
The Caledonian canal is SO on my list when I get over there!
It’s HARD work
One of your best. Thank you Eric. You are a real inspiration.👍
PLEASE DONT STOP THESES PODCASTS
Erik, you never fail to impress. I especially appreciate your no BS drama that most others seem to think that is necessary to attract viewers. Just sailing.

Thank you for your professional content. Enjoyable by narration, story, excitement, adventure and filming/editing skills. Very entertaining :)
amazing amazing. You are a legend and I am after two years following you ⛵️ I did the route you did and am doing, I started from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Shetland, Paula. Fair Island Orkney in Scotland I was 4 months. Today I anchor in France. The journey stopped on Black Day 7/10 the day Hamas attacked Israel Thank you for inspiring me 🙏🙏⛵️
This was a great inet. Loved all the details about different light houses and all.
Erik, thank you for sharing with us your adventures. The quality of your video is second to none. The guys in Hollywood need few tips from you !!!
Thank Erik for that woundeful adventure
Awesome sailing and stunning scenery! And with beer in hand what a way indeed, to celebrate life! 👍
Watching your videos is so much fun. As you go along your journey we get to see beautiful coasts and towns. We also feel the excitement and get anxious as waves grow bigger and wind blows harder. Thank you for dragging us into your journeys with your videos. Sail safely.
Congratulations Erik, another great chapter!!! May the good winds and great adventures continue!!!
As usual, a beautiful video.
I can't wait for Chapter 6.
Absolutely beautiful. The music, the drone shots, the cinematography, very, very, well done 👍
Another great video it’s amazing seeing this area I know so well especially with your great drone camera work .
Your doing a great job helping the Scottish tourist board
Where a lot of Scandinavian sailors over in Scotland sailing this year
Great!!!in all its aspects.Eric is a real descendant of Vikings!!
Brilliant video....a warm welcome to the West Highlands and the Isles of the Inner Hebrides. Some of the best and most enjoyable sailing in the world.
Love your channel, quality filming, editing, sailing and music, thank you for all of your hard work. One suggestion, have 2 lines on your dinghy. I have seen two other channels where they had one line and lost theirs so they have two lines now, connected to two different points on the dingy :)
Great video Erik! I plan to backtrack this journey in the spring on Spirit. Looking forward to the next chapter. Fair winds.
Stunning video in everyway, thank you, sitting watching you and the landacape on a large screen is a treat. Much appreciated.
Great video thanks Erik. BTW, that low flying aircraft was an A400M - it replaces the Hercules aircraft as a turboprop workhorse.
Much bigger than the Hercules
agreed Airbus A400M Atlas, give away was for me was the T tail. 😊
173,305th (?!) rePete view - because you captured some magnificent views of some spectacular areas my own eyes won't likely ever see otherwise.
One of the most beautiful parts of the world. I lived in Oban for a few years in the 1970s. And if you can support the RNLI, you really should. Next year is the RNLI's 200th anniversary. A really worthwhile charity.
Thank you Erik for sharing such wonderful images of my beautiful home country. I appreciate it.
welcome to scotland thanks for showing off my home waters many ive spent many happy years around these islands.. lol the sound of mull is always full of wind shifts and surprises.

Great video…really captured the beauty of the scenery and the sail down the sound of Mull was perfect. Great series!
I love your videos sitting at home in a warm room with a glass of whine. Im Sweden The Baltic sea i sail 5-6 months a year , the rest i live in Barcelona . To cold for me, but your videos are great. Be careful 👍👍

Beat me to it, the aircraft was an A400M Atlas of the Royal Air Force. Another awesome video Erik
Mesmerizing videos of professional quality and always pushing the envelope of the possible !
Sail safe,
😎
Maaaaaan, that was unbelievable! Amazing video again, great drone shots. Can't wait to see the next part through Scotland. Congratulations to you for doing this sailing while filming. Unreal...
Amazing video Erik. What a beautiful place. They make a very good scotch at Oban. I recommend it.
That was fabulous as usual Erik. I loved the trip alongside you. The St Kilda visit was amazing. To think that you follow the Vikings is so very special. Thanks 🙏 again for brilliance x
Repeatedly crash-jibing in 20 knots with the gennaker flying. Just wow!
What a great landscape, beautifully captured. Thank you for sharing.
you mention wake of ancestors.. I feel I am there too. great videos.
Incredible.. much thanks for your efforts. 🍺
New Brunswick Canada 🇨🇦
If you get any dislikes on this video it's probably from the guy you passed just before Oben. Mvh Jarle
hahaha
Excellent videos. We were up in Tobermory and Oban at the same time as you in early Aug, doing West Highland Yachting Week. It was quite "bouncy" at Tobs on the evening of 3 Aug!
You also had an easier sail into Rum than we did a few years back!
Keep the videos coming in.
What a good one, and you seem to feel better than you have in awhile, so hopefully all is well. I loved the music, it’s perfect with your videos.
I love the Music, it matches with the environment and of course You. That little island was beautiful, I can’t imagine anyone preferring the marina to that view. I hope you’re having a Merry Christmas ! 🎄
Great to see you sailing in my Homeland Erik look forward to seeing the next video👍
Thank, great to be here!
I love it up around there , I am glad you are enjoying Scotland though I would have thought it is similar to Norway in a lot of ways and a lot of the Scottish people are mostly descended from Viking settlers themselves , Oban is lovely and has Craigs folly over looking it on the hill above and Tobermory with its famous galleon wreck and the Gulf of Corryvreckan whirlpool found between Jura and Scarba .
Extremely beautiful, thanks for sharing. Lots of good memories around the scenic village of Oban from a visit by car some years ago. I have to charter a boat up there one day, and sail the area myself.
Super cool of Aaron to donate some quality pipe music!
Ima cruise over to his channel now and take a look/listen around.
Not only good to push the limits for your self confidence but you need to learn how the boat can perform / handle the extreme conditions. Another great video Erik.
The Music (and the Video) is great! Very good idea to use this Kind of Music! Fits perfect!
Fantastic editing job. Always enjoy your videos. Thank you so much .
Great drone footage in this one and some exciting sailing! Careful with that gennaker though. When the boat starts to roll from side to side in strong winds with the gennaker up, you’re close to doing what’s called a ‘Chinese gybe’, which will cause Tessie to fully broach and maybe break some rigging. Best to err on the side of caution!
Hey, when two sailboats see each other with sails up, it’s a race! I’m a good tactician onboard and have beaten faster boats by using a better strategy! Glad you finally found a calm anchorage and a cold beer after an exciting day of sailing. Got my burgee and will fly it with pride next spring during sailing season. There’s a 2000’ cliff called Jaw Point that I plan to sail to next season and get some drone footage of. Thnx for keeping me inspired during the off season!
They are waters I travel aboard our Scotish 'Calmac' ferries. Lovely to see it from a more adventurous viewpoint!
I think your sailing style is very unique as you do it by yourself, and you deliver good information about various places. Keep up!
Lovely Scottish scenery. Lovely Irish music 🤓
I'm just about to begin waiting out winter here, might have to head south next winter, your videos are always inspiring, one reason or part of the reason I bought an old sailboat last summer, there is no going back now lol , I'm hooked ☠️✌️
Eric another great video the music is chilling almosy haunting with the back drop
Its a long way from Aus, but WOW, I am super keen to sail Scotland after watching this
Exceptional story telling Erik. You're an inspiration!
I love your videos. this one is fun and also gives the feel of the adventure
Kudos to you. You are living a life that many dream of (including me).
Fantastic adventure, Erik! But please tell me you're sampling the legendary single malts in these famed towns.
