[@IgorStropnik]

Hvala ;)

[@IgorStropnik]

It was june and july. I had most of food aboard but had to stop for the water.Bailer was ok but as I was overloaded water was leaking in from dagerboard hole so I put ducktape over every night to stay dry.

Really nice, i can see in the beggining you're sailing around Korčula and Pelješac, also some bays on Mljet as well, especially later in the video.

[@marmac567]

You are very lucky to have great sailing area and nice weather..

[@IgorStropnik]

Yes very lucky

[@900bdk]

Fantastic sailing trip and wonderfull boat as well - Go Laser Go !! Bart - Nazareth Belgium

[@wightwalker2453]

Brave choice of boat, Laser 2 regatta

[@IgorStropnik]

One of the rare boats that can be transported on roof of the car and that you can sleep in cockpit. And still very fun to sail.

[@wightwalker2453]

Igor Stropnik an impressive adventure- good for you.

Awesome Adventure! I recently picked up an old Laser 2 and will be building it similar to how you did yours. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@beppe9638]

Good Job....i did this on a 5m dinghy years ago in Sardinia...nautical camping is cool...!!

[@IgorStropnik]

You have any videos? How is to sail there?

[@beppe9638]

@@IgorStropnik I have no videos...just some pictures, east coast is safe enough...i now work on a sailing school in north sardinia and Maestrale can be an issue (strong NW wind)....so west coast can be a challenge....i sailed from Olbia to Villasimius...so is not a long way like yours....plus we where 2 guys.....but water and food can be a problem Sardinia still has wild sandy beaches and markets are far away.

[@IgorStropnik]

East coast up north and west coast downwind. Hope one day I sail there.

[@hogey74]

Awesome dude! I am just about to buy one ... seems like I need to take her for a decent spin :-)

[@davidsumners8268]

I love this, sooo cool :)

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks 😊

[@matgoddard3115]

Awesome video well done

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks!

[@TheFleetcaptain210]

Well done. What month(s) did you sail? Also did you carry all your own food on board or did you stop and purchase as you went? I have to ask how you managed to stop the auto bailer from leaking, I have sailed Laser II and I found the bailer to be prone to leaking.

[@TheMdriver]

Me encanta!!

[@TheFrenchfry33]

This is crazy amazing! Where did you store most of your stuff like the food? Great video!

[@IgorStropnik]

Inside the hull. Made the hatch.

[@TheFrenchfry33]

Nice! I hope someday I can do the same.. Really inspiring!

[@mysticblade35]

uncle bob how'd you do it? I'm inspired after watching this video

[@beachheavenmaldiveshuraaho8156]

Too good!

[@ConorByrne1983]

Amazing effort. well done.

[@TripSmith]

Man, pretty good video! All that on a laser 2? Well done.

[@fleabagandfinch]

Hey Igor, wondering what kind of bailer was in your cockpit on the Laser 2? I have one as well and just did a trip to some local islands in Lake Superior but it was always leaking water in while trying to sleep for the night. Camped ashore but I'd love to sleep in the cockpit like you.

[@IgorStropnik]

My bailer was standard and not leaking much. I was getting water in through dagerboard opening so every night I duck taped it and was ok.

[@fleabagandfinch]

@@IgorStropnik Thanks for the duct tape tip! I'll bring a roll for the daggerboard slot. I've got the standard bailer at the back end too, so I may just need to replace the seals or fix it. Thanks again for the help, this video's been an inspiration to me for quite a while.

[@IgorStropnik]

@@fleabagandfinch Thanks 😊

[@HarryTobin1999]

respect man respect

[@RobHealey]

Brilliant !

[@OldJong]

Great video and adventure! :-)

[@granskare]

neat! maybe you should have a metal detector with you to do the beach when there is no wind :)

[@joelhance476]

great, congrats for this video !! how did you manage to buy supplies during the trip ?

[@IgorStropnik]

I had food for 10 days..pasta, tuna, cookies...and water for 6 days. Than I would stop in local vilages. Thanks!

[@Henry-iv9nb]

this is great and inspiring :)

[@barandakim6887]

Respect.

[@IgorStropnik]

Thanks 🙏👍🙌🍻

[@nachocheese104]

what did you do about the bailer letting in water when you don't have speed? like when you slept.

[@jaouen56]

An excellent video but quite too short !!!!! could you one day make a longer movie.. A french Laser Standard Sailor.

[@benjaminaustin1534]

Considering doing similar but have wondered about towing a small dinghy for stores? What are your thoughts? Also is it stable to sleep on the deck?

[@IgorStropnik]

I tried towing small dinghy but it does not work :( You can sleep on deck. Once you put all the luggage on it gets very stable.

[@lucianocaldas69]

awesome! incredible!! congratulations! you need some gear for spearfishing ;)

[@AleBoniable]

hey man.. amazing adventure.. could u please post the route of the trip with these cool arbors name thanks!​

[@IgorStropnik]

Go sailing to Croatia and you will find a lot beautiful harbours and bays. The one in the end is next to Saplunara on island Mljet.

[@pentearmacaco]

Wonderful adventure. How many days was it?

[@IgorStropnik]

36 days

[@hannorasmusholtiegel6044]

Can you recommend the laser 2 for tours like this .

[@IgorStropnik]

Tours like this are dangerous and stupid thing to do. You can do it with laser2 or any similar boat but the key is to slowly build experience.

[@hannorasmusholtiegel6044]

@@IgorStropnik well, I did it this summer. Sailed around Kopenhagen and parts of Denmark with my new pirate

awesome!

[@TheRichardellison]

What is your favorite clothing ? Does not look like you ever use a dry suit? What food do you take ?

[@IgorStropnik]

Sandiline. Food is pasta,rice,fruit,cokies.

[@TheRichardellison]

@@IgorStropnik what about clothing ? Thanks for reply

[@IgorStropnik]

Sandiline clothes. The best you can get. Drysuit is amazing and the same for other clothes. Best quality.

[@curiosoneee]

I like it

[@themilkmister]

This is CRAZY! Both your Norway long distance trip and this one average out exactly 55.5km/day!! What are the chances. Did you do this intentionally

[@IgorStropnik]

In Norway summer you have day light 24h. So you can sail a lot. I would go for 30h sailing sometime as no good place to stop. Adriatic sea is more tricky with winds. In june you have were long day. If you start early morning you can get beautiful offshore wind which stops by 10h and I was lucky with day wind Maestral that started 12h and goes untill sunset. In Croatia you can get very low winds but I was lucky and best day was 70Nm which is amazing.

[@barnagorfol1]

Anyway...If i will have enough money and time I would like to go to a similar journey with my dinghy......RESPECT!

[@AdventuresInReach]

I just came across this video and loved it. Did you ever dona trip with your dinghy? I just posted a video of camping with my Sunfish Sailboat. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYenlpyhbNyHorc

Sailing from Nordkapp to Stockholm. Search Igor Stropnik on you tube and look at film ''Katamaranom na napuhavanje do Stocholma''

[@hamishmcgill7008]

Thinking bout doing similar on a moth in NZ can you give a gear list? Like safety equip and whiz

[@hamishmcgill7008]

Non foiling moth

[@IgorStropnik]

Not much more as you can see on video. Safety: 2x flares,life jacket, mobile phone.

[@barnagorfol1]

Hi! In the near future I want to buy a Laser 2 sailboat, but I dont understand 1 thing. In descriptions and in videos there are the boat with spinnaker. But in some videos I see Laser 2 with a bowsprit. Can somebody explain it to me? Sorry if my english not perfect:)

[@apoknino98]

awesome

[@ozzyozzy4578]

[@IgorStropnik]

😉

[@cagdasnergizovic3553]

Laser 2 or laser bahia?

[@IgorStropnik]

L2 for sporty and action sailing. Bahia for comfort, more people.

[@cagdasnergizovic3553]

@@IgorStropnik thank you! 😊

[@hellohawa]

did you add storage into the hull? If so, how did you do this?

[@IgorStropnik]

Yes, two round hatches diameter 30cm. One behind and one forward. Laser is hollow inside so there is a lot of space.

[@TheShorterboy]

LOL extreme, you need to do 1500NM in bass straight, thats extreme

[@adamf.4823]

Hi Igor, love your videos! I am considering purchasing a Laser 2 for expedition cruising on the coast. I want to sleep on the boat like you did here. How long is the cockpit? How tall are you? Was it comfortable for you? Thanks for any help!

[@IgorStropnik]

I am 190cm. It is very comfortable. Only problem is that if you have a lot of heavy equipment a little water gets in through dagerboard hole. I put ducktape every night and it worked.

[@adamf.4823]

​@@IgorStropnik Thank you very much! That was my exact question about the daggerboard hole also so thank you, duct tape always works! I am very excited I think I will buy the boat today.

[@IgorStropnik]

@@adamf.4823 It is a good boat.

[@MisterMakesSense]

Fun but must be terribly unhealthy on the body to be stuck in one position for so long. You must have been cramped up bad.

[@IgorStropnik]

Not at all. You change your position, go swimming, stand while sailing. My body was very happy.

[@Chirpingler]

So true! It is the big boat sailors bodies with too much comfort and too little adventure that suffer the most.

[@AdventuresInReach]

Sailing in a Sunfish for multiple days gets cramped, but the Laser looks like it would be fairly comfy. I even stand when sailing the sunfish.
