Sailing To Greenland part 1. - Norway to Shetland -

[@patricklaine6958]

Brilliant filming; brilliant narration Erik. Thanks for taking us along. Can't wait for the next episode.

[@peteg6632]

And when's your next video out Patrick?

[@richardsimpson2599]

Yours isn't too shabby either Mr Laine !

[@sailingcitrinesunset4065]

💯👍

[@tylerdives]

I came here to say this. Ridiculously good production quality. Can't wait for more content.

[@ournarrowboatadventure8458]

It’s basically just like a well filmed and well edited documentary, well done! Looking forward to more! 👍🏻

[@stephon4661]

This channel is UNDOUBTEDLY, the best and greatest sailing channel on KZbin! Erik, you are phenomenal, and you and your channel, will live forever! SKOL!!!!

[@gabrielsanders4650]

YES!

[@leslieduthie9406]

I know the hours and hours that it takes to achieve such quality content and you just nail it everytime. You take us away with you as we sit at our laptops or on our phones and it's always a thrilling ride, never knowing what's going to happen next, but pretty much certain it won't be dull. You really are a true explorer Erik and a natural film maker. Just great!!!

[@aardvarkmindshank]

Laptops and phones?!? I Chromecast these videos to my 85" TV and turn the volume up. Breathtaking!

[@briandale8386]

. A heated locker to dry your gear would be sweet. And toasty if you need warmed up. Thanks Erik your videos always keeps me grounded when it comes to sailing. I can’t wait for my finally.

[@joshuapatrick682]

To see this, hi tech alternative to things like Sam Holmes is definitely interesting. Your family seems lovely and supportive man, thanks for uploading! Good luck with the channel!

[@SVZonda]

Erik..... I for one am glad that you are going to do this full time! I hope that means that we can go sailing with you more often! Those of you who have just watched this channel for the first time, go back and look at all Erik’s previous episodes...... It truly is NBJS!...No Bullshit Just Sailing! All the best Richard

[@seatopiascuba3540]

Reminder set for this legendary man! Looking forward to seeing what’s next🙏

[@genag4082]

I am the guy who never sailed and who gets sea sick for no good reason. Yet, I love the sea and always go there when I have a chance. Erik got me hooked on real sailing and I cannot wait for the next episode of his adventure.

[@crismoore6811]

You are the REAL thing. A true hard core sailor. Wonderful commentaries, boat, pictures. Thank you.

[@Navegaravela]

I've been following your channel for 6 years, you give me inspiration to create my KZbin channel. I love your videos. You are a crack. Thank you for translating the videos into Spanish Language. A hug from the Mediterranean Sea. Tomás Ruiz

[@jay_behr]

Your videos are always a cut above, not just due to the production values or film quality (although they're great) but more because you're always waiting on the next big wind or wave, and feeling the rudder wheel right on the limit, but more coz you can't wait to show what you can do, and do (semi) safely. I think you have your approach just right - not too "safety", not too reckless ... you're just chock full of life and you want to live every moment to the maximum. My girlfriend and I absolutely love your stuff, and as a disabled sailor who is determined to circumnavigate in the next few years, I can honestly say you're inspiring, so thank you. I fully intend to live my best life, as I see you live it every time you go out. Cheers fellah, and big love to your family too - they get your spirit too, bless them.

[@PaulusPHM]

Emotional with Viking spirit Erik takes into his world from past and future.

[@xaviercasanovas4317]

Just with the first 4 minutes you can see how good he films, how good he edits, and how good he writes. No mention needed on how he sails. Thanks Erik. Greetings from the calm sees of the brave coast in Catalonia.

[@stargatetarot]

Your channel is the best sailing channel on KZbin by far!! And I'm actually learning something here!! Is truly awesome to be on his trip with you!! Tks man!!!

[@kevinvisser6538]

The best sailing channel on KZbin if you ask me. Open, honest, adventurous, good luck with the rest of the trip Erik!

[@rykehuss3435]

8:15 Now thats the money shot right there. Print it, frame it, hang it on your wall. Absolute beauty!

[@rcpmac]

I often watch channels focused on boat repair and preparation for adventures and when they shove off to sea I unsubscribe. This channel however has the best and most engaging video and story lines I've seen. Excellent work on all points.

[@zackgomer]

You remind me of my grandpa who passed away in 2012, he would love these videos, he was a religious sailer, loved sailing just like you do. Keep enjoying what you are doing! It’s amazing to watch‼️liked & subscribed!!!

[@jamieyz]

The best hardcore sailing videos I have found. You will do fine without your everyday job. Ballsy move nonetheless less. Congratulations!

[@reconinspections9573]

Eric I love the mo bull shit just sasiling concept. I am a 62 year old disabled vet and your videos work on my soul. Thank you for the great job you do I hope to be able to help support soon!! Keep up the good work NBJS!!

[@bpetersson5024]

Brilliant video! the reality of the weather conditions, the cold, the wind, etc., doesn´t really show, so for anyone interested to come to this part of the world, start with small goals! the entire north atlantic is an amazing region of austere and remote beauty that has few equals, perhaps the Cape Horn. If you make it up here, there is small window in the fall where the cold rolls in and puts a thin sheet of ice on the coastal area waters and if you can, get up at sunrise and set sail in what invariable is light, winds,3-4knts, and listen the ice crack when the hull goes through the water, its magical, like music...and then go to the viking festival on Shetland on Jan 27th, massive party where thy burn the viking ship every year...Erik is doing it the way the vikings did it 1,000 years ago, just with updated tools! grattis!

[@bobbiejay2085]

You are the ultimate storyteller. Enthralling maritime adventure as we join you on your passage. Thank you.

[@alanduncan4691]

Your seamanship is impressive Erik, but you've become quite a cinematographer too!

[@hv7978]

YES. Another Brilliant shot movie about REAL sailing. Better then any program on television, Netflix or Amazon combined. Safe trips !

[@MrMichaelcurran]

The treachery of the North Atlantic must always be respected, but without human endeavor we would never know our limits. Thank you for bring us along as take on the Atlantic at it best and worst.

[@SheriffofYouTube]

there is no better youtube channel creator. bless your new fulltime adventures

[@MrBlurbman]

Erik has got to be the most hardcore sailing blogger out there. Love your video's.....respect!

[@MrDazP1adv3ntures]

You are a fantastic story teller Erik. The narration is excellent and I was gripped from the start of the video to the finish. I am already looking forward to part two.

[@trevorbyron9448]

The best videography of sailing videos. The oceans out there are spectacular. I've watched a few of Andrea's videos and fell in love. Reminiscent of 59 North sailing - my first watched sailing videos that got me hooked. This guy's videos will become number 1

[@dbharrold]

I've really missed your voyages Erik, wonderful to have you back. I cant wait for the next episode.

[@timothymclaughlin6860]

Absolutely love Your work and what You do . I am a driver for Wal Mart Transportion out of Land Locked Kansas in the United States . Such an epic ride on the phone … but when I get home my Wife Miss Julie and I watch Your Journeys on the Big Screen and hear You adventures on the sound system . Your so good at what You do and it’s truly very inspiring. Thank You So much 🙂

[@dougmarder]

Stunning. Your episodes continue to set new standards for KZbin, and not just the sailing channels. Cannot wait for the next one to drop! Hold Fast!

[@charliemcgrain]

You are a Viking with a poet's heart. Thanks you so much.

[@4FJM]

Erik...your one badass Norwegian Viking with an amazing talent for storytelling. Just keep doing what your doing and we'll be anxiously waiting for your next adventure. Takk Takk!!

[@christopherr2088]

This is one of the only real sailing channels out there. With proper preparation a proper boat and excellent footage! Cheers to your journey :)

[@Ilovelife1975]

Wauw Erik, This is another level of filming, its like a movie. I don't know what you did to make it like this. Just amazing Erik. And i love your boat with all the gadgets, you deserve to have all this. Well done captain ;)

[@bolo863]

I follow a few sailing channels but mostly just to see how they repair the boat's and to see some of the places they go to but for actual sailing I absolutely love your channel. You win hands down in that category.

[@HeadwatersKayak]

Your drone work is incredible. What a great video. Always look forward to your videos.

[@toddwever4916]

You Erik are an inspiration to anyone that has ever thought of sailing the world. So wish I could join you for your seamanship and knowledge! Incredible journeys you embark on!

[@marinaarmstrong8877]

The icescape at seconds 0:30 will make for a stunning landscape print.

[@Keanu64]

Unbelievable shots here, your ability to tell a captivating story is unmatched

[@СергоГнездилов]

у тебя стальные нервы и несгибаемая сила воли. 💪не каждый готов на такие маршруты в одиночку!!!восхищаюсь тобой

[@Gui1988-y8p]

ABSOLUTE LEGEND!

[@allanhester1391]

Erik, congratulations on making the bold decision to leave your day job and become a youtube sailing star. Your videos are becoming more sophisticated and interesting with each new one posted. Luv the drone footage. You are a true Viking: a "manly man's man." See you next time.

[@МарнидШапештинский]

Наконец-то есть русские субтитры) Great, Erik, Great as always. Thank you for this video and good luck. From Russia with love!

[@smutek452]

That's why I love your films: nordic climat, no bullshit just sailing and sharing life wisdom. If you also could explain how do you prepare, how do you plan etc. that would be just amazing. Also, the drone shots are really breath-taking

[@dezh6083]

He does it again,.Stirring our Emotions, with the narrative and stunning Views , such an emotive Film, as I always say, such a brave thing to do to cross those seas. The boat is looking great and it looks to be taking some strain off you during the dark nights. Good Job Erik and looking forward to.the next eagerly awaited installment. I having lived in Orkney for 5 years so you're spot on with the comments about what path u take.

[@AdventuresofanoldSeadog]

You rock Bro, loved the video.

[@anthonypreston5171]

Erik, your editing , content and especially your drone footage is utterly brilliant. It's a real watch.

[@rad4627]

Nobody does it better, I love your style living on the edge. Most people don’t understand that living with knowledge Cancels any fear. Good luck salute, best regards watching from Florida USA

[@steventurner1626]

Another great production! Thank you Erik.

[@rusamene]

The amount of work this man puts to his production is unbelievable.

[@emike09]

I love your comparisons to space exploration, explorations of the Vikings, and your own solo adventures. What a beautiful comparison. Keep on exploring!!

[@SimonLarkin-CSRecording]

Your seamanship, skill and bravery are amazing but on top of that you make these amazing films. Wow!!

[@Dozz70]

This guy should have his own TV Show....he is Great!

[@Andrew_Magri]

Hello from Malta. I have been looking forward to this. I am sure it is going to be epic! Thank you for the videos.

[@ChristophMarius]

This channel just showed its enormous potential. Can't wait what is ahead of you and us !!

[@rekcolc]

15:13 Eshaness lighthouse, I got married there (both my wife and I are from italy). Thanks for bringing up a great memory Eric and oh, by the way, ballsy sailing as usual ;)

[@dougtiffany7439]

Hey Erik, as a Oilfield Diver for 20 year's and a Sailer, i really enjoy your adventure's, sail on.

[@Thomas_2615]

Eric thank you so much for your amazing trips unique and your positive words. You motivated me to go sailing too. Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

Wonderful , just wonderful. Have been waiting for this for a long time and THANK YOU for sharing your great adventure and experiences with us all. You are a true Viking :) Greetings from WW2HistoryHunter.

[@WW2HistoryHunter]

@@erikaanderaa No , thank YOU for giving others a insight of your world and adventures :)

[@geoffmilner]

Your onboard cameras and alarm system have added great capability. Perfect for grabbing more sleep in safety. It must feel great to wake up with your boat having held course and covered more miles by itself. Like falling asleep in a Tesla in self driving mode. 🙂

[@danwestify]

Production quality and cinematography is next level!!

[@dustman96]

This is quickly becoming my favorite sailing channel. Great work all around, looking forward to the next episode. No bullshit, just sailing!

[@SashaVersus]

Eric, this is just very powerful, very! Thanks for the awesome 20 minute video! As always, a firm handshake! Greetings from Kyiv! S.

[@keith800]

I love not only watching your video's but also what I learn from them ..

[@1sheinz]

I am looking forward to the video's too come. You are one of the best sailing video producers out there, and at only part time at it amazing. Whats too come with full time work will BLOW US AWAY . CHEERS AND FAIR WINDS Steve h.

[@ivantodorov9136]

Your videos brings me some kind of peace! Keep doing them, because they are great! Cheers from Bulgaria.

[@itsjustplainsailing5189]

Erik, you are a sailing legend. Nothing more needs saying.

[@winstongray9818]

Erik very we'll put together video seeing how you control your vessel across the Atlantic is amazing, doing it singl hanging has given me more confidence for when I sail across from England to Florida your adventures gives me that drive your shirley are amazing, seeing how you have set your boat up, dealing with adjusting the sails to suit the conditions in the northern has opened my eyes what to expect so I'm loving your journey 👍

[@carlosgarciadossantos5139]

The best ever, I ride on my motorcycle but LOVE your sailing adventures.

[@joshuadoss1955]

Honestly this is my favorite channel. I greatly appreciate your effort and style.

[@trevorbyron9448]

Lovely. True nbjs is just that. The best sailing videos. The best rigged lil vessel with the finest passages. The most beautiful coastlines...the best videography... oh it makes my heart long to sail. Once day I will. Really enjoyed sailing with you

[@Digiphex]

Your videos awaken a genetic call to that area of the world. It felt like a deja vu when you pulled into that town and for an East Coat American it gave me strange memory feeling, though I have never been.

[@lagerson5529]

Video and editing is even better than before! Spectacular! Thank you!

[@inspiredesign101LV]

Can't wait for part 2 you are so amazing that you share your experience with the world.

[@guerro327]

Studio movie quality filming and editing. I think Erik is actually a film maker rather than a sailor. Such great quality and thank you for sharing all your adventures!

[@alessandraguimaraes8886]

Maravilhoso lugar! Sim, certíssimo, somos os responsáveis pelo sentido da nossa existência. Parabéns! Obrigada!

[@nonoiscool98]

Love the boat, videoagraphy, and editing in no particular order.

[@SimonStJohn]

Brilliant…at last a Chanel without BS…just adventure…keep it up!

[@ismzaxxon]

Awesome. I live on a yacht, and still get goosebumps watching your voyages...

[@leeinnes7127]

One of the very best content creators on KZbin and one of the nicest too. Epic

[@TheGrindcorps]

These are always awesome. It reminds me of that discovery channel show survivor man where he would go out in the middle of nowhere for a week alone, only with a viking sailing to Greenland. Stay safe!

[@SVImpavidus]

Anyone that has sailed the North Atlantic knows that NBJS just tells it how it is. Yes, the tropics, Mediterranean, Bahalmers, Caribbean are lovely. But calm seas and fair winds do not make good sailors. Sometimes, just sometimes, we long for 6 Mtr tides, 5 Mtr swells and 5 knot currents. You tell the story so well Erik. Sail Safe mate. Ant, Cid & the pooch crew.

[@Ed-uj4bc]

Erik, stunning cinematography. You’re smart to quit your job and do this full time. There’s room for so many different kinds of sailing channels, whether it’s Patrick Laine’s channel or sea dog, pat lawless, jambo, you solo sailors are so different yet all so entertaining in your own right. Keep up the good work… I think you’ve found your purpose!

[@782Rod]

Wow Erik. You stir my blood. A tad too old to do what you do now but hell, would give my eye teeth to be there with you and enjoy the adventure. Fair winds and a good storm to get you there.

[@Bouwenfirst]

Well filmed and beautyful views Erik! That Contessa 35 looks like she is a true companion. I love her lines.

[@brsavir]

I feel so happy that I found this video. Your attitude to nature and sea is awesome. I wish I have 10 percent of your skill. Hope you always have favourable winds. Looking forward for next movies.

[@obxarms7685]

Can't wait to see some video of the Faroes! What a magical place!

[@robinwells8879]

Good to see you and experience your utterly irrepressible positivity again. Re the window. I think that we forget sometimes how much the hull changes shape when we are underway. That’s a big ask for any sealants. I was on the coast of Argyll in August and it was idilc weather but perhaps not for sailing. Calm with overnight sea fog. Utterly magical. The drone footage is too die for as ever. Go well and fair winds Sir.

[@RaphaelOertel]

I don’t like it when we have to turn on the engine due to lack of wind. Sailing is beautiful and you are showing it to us. Thanks for sharing

[@randystrand908]

Wow... Only my second sighting of your videos. Wonderful. Awesome photography and interesting narration! You are sailing where I want to be on that vast water someday. Thank you for sharing your adventures.

[@jimscherl2307]

Eric! Wow! Great video! Love your channel! Can’t wait til the next show! Definitely worth the wait! Be well! ✌️

[@johnnewman8412]

Fantastic video as always Erik. And I wholeheartedly agree with your idea that life is without meaning or purpose unless we give it one. If more people realized that maybe they wouldn't spend so much time, energy (and money) waiting for someone else to tell them what the meaning of life is!

[@Borealwalkabouts]

Det här är den bästa kanalen om segling enligt min uppfattning. Riktigt bra producerat av dig

[@graeme-sailingskeptic]

Great editing and the videography as always is brilliant!

[@torstenhansen4308]

In another century, you would have been right there with Leif Eriksson as he approached wine land. Thank you for capturing the Viking spirit in your videos, the never truly answered question: “what’s beyond the horizon?”.

[@olgapotapova90]

I'm really impressed with the quality of the content. It contains everything: clips about sailing, drone videos and philosophical thoughts. Great storytelling! It's my dream to sail in north crossing Atlantic ocean (Faroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland). And your videos are invaluable guide.

[@Kamabushi999]

So you made the switch. Congrats! you wont regret it. Your epilogue starting at 13:40 made me teary eye… and realize how lucky you are. go on brother! live life!

[@rabukan5842]

Another great one Erik! You are an excellent writer/filmmaker as well as sailor. Gambatte from Japan!
