I love your respectful way of discovering new experiences and the special nature and harbours of Sweden and Norway. Very good photography and comments. Top quality. Will continue to follow you on your travels. Thank you for sharing.

The anchorage looks so peaceful. It was a short episode. I could consume more. Cheers.

Thanks so much! We have tried a couple different video lengths to see how the watch times vary.

I did my 13th and final Ironman triathlon in Norway and found it absolutely stunning though it cured me of my addiction and moved on to hang gliding. Now I want to take up sailing as I approach retirement. Love your videos.

We’re glad you are enjoying them. Norway is an incredible country, no matter the means by which you explore it!

Just want to say Hi to you both. It’s so amazing to see & hear about your journey from our home in Kennebunkport. Hope it will warm us for you soon. Be well and enjoy! Sending hugs!!

(We have a couple friends in Kennebunkport … give us a hint to let us be sure who gooserocks27 is!)

Thanks for good video today~ I have a question. I don’t have code 0 sail nor genaker sail. You uses code 0 sail for downwind. Code 0 sail is useful for upwind and downwind, right? If I need one more sail, which one is more useful for us, Code 0 or Genaker? Thanks ahead

[@LifeFourPointZero]

That’s funny you ask, we just bought an asymmetrical spinnaker (another name for genaker for the benefit of others) and we recently had a conversation about which one we would buy if we bought just one. The asymmetrical spinnaker would be our vote because it is a true downwind sail whereas the code zero struggles to go below 130-degrees apparent wind angle unless it is held out with a whisker pole.

[@windy1973]

@@LifeFourPointZero thank you for your kind answer. In your today’s video, I saw you used code 0 with whisker pole so I asked. I installed whisker pole already but not used yet. I will use whisker pole with gennoa sail for downwind. And than later I am considering to buy genaker. Thank you

@windy1973 glad our thoughts helped you come up with a plan. We love sharing what we experience and we learn so much from others. It is a helpful community!
