Theres no crash…

nice job man, keep it up.

first!!! No way

Was reefing downwind a possibility with your boat?

What a seamanship❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you!

Heaving to can be a life saver, for sure! I'd recommend keeping the companion way watertight in those conditions, however... you're only one link in the error chain away from catastrophe at any given moment, after all. Thanks for the video.

Wunderbar ❤

Oh wow, wie wunderbar. Danke fürs Teilen!

Sanfte Riesen, wie wundervoll. Sehr berührend. ❤

Get those washboards in, Berthold! One big wave slucing down your companionway and it’s “tatties ower the side” as we say in Scotland

Belles images, peut-être éviter de telles conditions de navigation...

Absolutely Beautiful TY

Why the hell is anybody sailing at 80 north in gale? Is the world short on lunatics?

Too much sail I m afraid, but it s easy to say as it s nearly impossible to get at the front and sort out things

Did you photograph through your wind shield, looks great

I don’t know about anyone else but once the lee rail is permanently under water I’m dropping as much sail as I can. That was scary to watch.

Turn windward and harness on get up to bow and at least have a quick look at it, if you can’t get it right then get back to helm and look at your options! Really need to check these things before the weather turns.

I would so have that companionway boarded up.

Absolutely inspiring Berthold 🙏🙏 All my best Ross

Berthold this was. Beautiful 🙏🙏 All my best always Ross

Imo this is a great clip to explain "just heave-to" in a real-life pressure situation. Question: breaking up on the shoals seems to be the worst-case scenario followed closely by a 2nd scenario of filling the open cabin by broach/knockdown. With that in mind, the distance between the helm (= navigating out of this mess) and the chart table here (= planning to avoid obstacles along the way) presents a bit of a quandary. This scenario has happened before and will again with lee shores - for posterity I'm interested in discussion re: mitigation. (Coupla' thoughts: center vs aft helm, tiller vs wheel, strategic hatch placement, unknown vs clear and present dangers; also, explains to me solo navigators using a small boat). Another question prob best left to a psychiatrist: why is it that there's a weird feeling of wanting to jump on in where the deck is tilted to port near the end of the clip? :)

Beautiful picture world and music. If you want to see my slideshow, which also has a shakuhachi flute played by my friend from Finnish Lapland kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXfcpJhviJuIoac

Berthold I totally totally loved this🙏🙏

Beautiful indeed, visually and acoustically! Greetings to Bodø from Berlin. :)

Should be shorting the sails in this weather. Safe sailing

Respect my man.

you you think is time to reef don't think, reef , way to much sail.....

Great footage

Where exactly is this in Norway? I’m going to Alaska in June to see walruses but they’re all male adults. I’d love to see the baby calves as well

Ooof 😳

Beautiful Berthold, I really love this my friend 🙏🙏 All my best always Ross

All in a fiberglass haul?

Terima Kasih!❤

mesmerizing! thank you sir

YEP NA😂

а может 180 бро?

Beautiful Berthold 🙏🙏

That's a lot of canvas

Eerst oefenen bij minder wind😢

Süsse Dtimme und passt perfekt zu deiner Melodie❤

Now thats how to heave to....amazing oh and every single person here has left the sails up too late as well.

Nicely done. Wish i had that skill

👍✊

and here was me, looking for a goid sailing channel to follow, when this pure gem of a video was recommended by KZbin 😂

quand on navigue dans des conditions pareilles, un "bon marin" aurait fermé totalement ses panneaux de descente ! when sailing in this rough conditions, a "good seaworthy salty-man" should close securely his companion ways

This was breathtaking Berthold… I loved it 🙏🙏 Ross

La mise a la cape serait aussi bonne gv bordée plat sans foc a contre, qui fait beaucoup giter le bateau. C’est mon point de vue.
