Hey all! I've uploaded a new video of our embarrassing adventure ;) Sorry that this time it wasn't a Patreon early access, I'm desperately trying to keep up with a bi-weekly publishing schedule on Youtube. Hope you enjoy and thanks for the support!

PAN-PAN-PAN, Torshavn radio - No maneuverability & no engine!

Short video of our emergency on water and a bit of discussion on what we did wrong & what we did right. In the end I feel very dumb indeed 😉 Please also see the FAQ below in the comments! Enjoyed the video and want to support my small production? You can do so on Patreon, thank you for even considering this! https://www.patreon.com/alluringarctic . Patreon is a crowdfunding platform for creators. Your support on Patreon lets me allocate more time into shooting+editing these videos. As a Patron you get access to a real-time boat tracker (with track and location infos), real-time updates (photos and random crap not suitable for wider audience) and access to our very own Arctic sailing WhatsApp group. It really helps me out, thanks a lot!

Terve! Good job, and a good video. I like where you are evaluating all the situations that occurred and trying to learn something. The rubber gloves reminds me of a story in Afghanistan. On many occasions after we had troops in contact, people started picking up the fired cartridges, because that's what the were trained to do when on the firing range (or back home). While under stress people tend to fall back to their training. I use to have a BMW GS 1200 Adventure - 2008. It was also equipped with a electronic fuel measure which looked like a small film? which was glued to the side of the fuel tank. Now, I had to change it three times. It turned out that all the fuel additives in 95 Oct Gasoline fuel in Sweden was melting the fuel gauge film inside the tank. If I would let a new film sit for aprox 4 weeks, it would be broken. Now, while I know you don't have the exact problem, it still just liked to mention it. Many of the fuel gauges while produced where able to handle the fuel mixture at the time of the production, but nowadays the add all different kinds of things to the fuel... Kiitos!
