Solo Sailing To The Faroe Islands - Crossing The North Sea Part 2

[@MikeSantis]

Great man. Planning to do this trip in my Great Dane 28 from Denmark in 2026. Thanks for the video. Subscribed

[@Sailingandsunsets]

Thankyou man, fair winds on your trip! If you plan on sailing around the islands make sure to visit the Island Hestur and go past the vestmanna birdcliffs!

[@MikeSantis]

@@Sailingandsunsets I have actually been to the bird cliffs by Vestmanna at a boat trip back in 2007 when I was at the Faroes. Hestur I have seen from a distance from the ferry from Kirkjubøur to Sandoy. So much to visit with my own boat!

That's a very cool looking yacht...

You mentioned that you maybe would sail to Hebrides. I can recommend it. This summer I sailed in my Bandholm 27 (27 feet) from Denmark to Mandal (Norway) and from there to Kirkwall (Orkney). On to Stornoway - Tobermory - Port Ellen - Bangor (North Ireland) - Dun Laoghaire (Dublin) - Dunmore East Harbour - Portsmouth - Dover - back to Denmark. An unforgettable two month voyage where I enjoyed the sailing, the beutiful and not least the Pubs, where I met the helpful and great local people.

Nice man, unfortunately i did not get there since I lost a week of my vacation to the AIS breaking. The Hebrides is on the bucket list though! I bet that was an awesome sailtrip you had good for you. The scottish people are very friendly indeed!

[@steinmoller-nilsen4118]

Well done, young man, and a great video. A webcam shot at Victoria Pier is on the bucket list.

[@Sailingandsunsets]

Thankyou man, I got that screenshot saved somewhere on my phone 🫡

Congratulations with reaching Shetland Islands. Thanks for this great video again. Will be waiting for next one.

[@Sailingandsunsets]

Thanks! Much appreciated 👊

[@fickerblade2]

Thank you for your videos. Love every bit of it keep going! Wondering if she have some custom rigging or its original made? Never seen side chainplates on these models before. Fair winds and following Seas!

[@Sailingandsunsets]

@@fickerblade2 much appreciated thankyou! The rigging was custom made by the last owner. Oversized for sure but brings some peace of mind!

[@philclough]

nice! I was headed up there - my insurance company said no... apparently boat to small for them at 7.7M, and they knew I'd be doing it solo. looks amazing up there

[@Sailingandsunsets]

Time for a new insurance company then, don't let that stop you!

[@Sailingandsunsets]

@@sailing.oneworld DJI mini 3 pro! Thankyou man I appreciate it. Lerwick and Shetland overall is a beautiful place!

[@sailing.oneworld]

@@Sailingandsunsets Did you ever have problems with taking off while sailing? I just sank on right on takeoff ... seemed like a software problem

[@Sailingandsunsets]

I held onto the drone to long when launching one time. The props depowered right before I let it go and ut sank to the bottom. Other than that no. I push up as soon as I let it go.

[@darrylridgeway7680]

Design of boat looks like bigger loveworks or gecko

[@Sailingandsunsets]

I don't know those boats unfortunately but she's a swedish made Laurin 31 😃

[@MikeSantis]

Loveworks and Holly's boat is a Grinde 27. Designed in Denmark by Peter Bruun who he also designed Spekhugger and Kaskelot. Laurin is a Swedish built boat

[@nilsliljeberg8690]

Spetsgattad! Vad är det för en båt?
