Amazing Telescope View of a Real Norwegian Warship!

Ship spotting of a Norwegian Warship. The crew of Sailing Maja has been boarded by the coast guard ship Nornen several times on voyages between Norway and Sweden. Norway has very high taxes on alcohol, tobacco and food. The coast guard makes sure that we do not take more with us than is allowed. When we do ship spotting, this ship comes to our attention. Nornen class Manufacturer: Gryfia shipyard (Poland) Dimensions: 47.2 m (length), 10.3 m (width), 4.3 meters (draft) Displacement: 675 tons Armament: One 12.7 mm machine weapon Built: 2006 The five vessels in the Nornen class entered service from 2006–2008. The vessel operates in coastal waters in its own zone along the coast. The class consists of: KV "Nornen" (W330) KV "Farm" (W331) KV "Heimdal" (W332) KV "Njord" (W333) KV "Tor" (W334) The vessel operates in accordance with the Coast Guard Act and assists cooperating agencies such as the police and customs. Other tasks include assisting the Norwegian Central Rescue Service, as the response leader during search and rescue operations, and oil recovery after ship accidents. The vessel is equipped with both fixed and mobile booms and also recovery equipment for oil products. They also have the capacity to take on board 150 cubic meters in connection with recovery operations. The Coast Guard vessels are also very well equipped for towing other vessels. The Nornen class is also equipped with HPB (covered rescue vessel), with a large radius of action that is well suited for search, rescue and other emergency operations. And in addition, they make sure that sailboats do not carry too much beer when they sail between Sweden and Norway.

https://www.gofundme.com/jennytomas-lost-their-homeinmaria Hurricane Maria Destroyed My Sister Home: On September 20th, the eye of Hurricane Maria, a category 5 storm, hit Vieques, Puerto Rico, destroying my sister’s home (boat) and the majority of her belongings. Jenny Smith and her family (Tomas, Milan (3 yrs old) & Taleia (1 yr old) lived aboard their catamaran sailboat, NautiMermaid, when Hurricane Maria hit leaving them without a home. For several years, Jenny & Tomas worked tirelessly towards actualizing their dream of starting their own business on the island of Vieques -- – when it all shattered before their eyes overnight. Their planned source of income was lost after being on the island for 2 short months prior to the hurricane’s destruction. Thank you to all of you who have been so supportive of my sister during this journey. It has meant so much to her receiving all the positive messages of support from all over the world. Thank you for subscribing and following their journey on her youtube channel The Cat and The Mermaid. These videos have become even more special because they documented this small slice of time where they got to live aboard a catamaran before it was destroyed. Luckily Tomas’s Aunt has a house where they were all able to stay to safely ride out the storm. They are currently residing there with Tomas’s mother and brother (who had the roof ripped off of their home). Tomas has rigged the solar panels from the boat onto the house, so they can run the refrigerator during the day using solar, and run the generator only at night. Like many isolated areas of Puerto Rico, they still do not have consistent running water, hot water for showers, AC, power, and must wait in long gas lines (7+ hours) – in order to obtain the gas needed to keep generators running. Communication is still down on the majority of the island – cellular service & internet is still only intermittently available only from a handful of spots. Additionally, it's mostly a cash only society right now and the bank lines have been monstrous with ATMs only working intermittently. It is heartbreaking to see the devastation that has occurred to this community and worrisome that this island is almost completely dependent on tourism for their local economy. Tomas was born & raised in Vieques; it was part of my sister’s dream to be a part of this island’s community. Witnessing all the destruction that has occurred, the two of them have become dedicated to the rebuilding efforts. Let’s help them, with whatever you can give, to regain what my sister’s family has lost and to encourage them that they shouldn’t give up on following their dreams. ________________________________________________________ CNN Footage of my sister's boat: http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/28/us/vieques-cut-off-after-hurricane-maria/index.html NautiMermaid is shown from 0:57 - to 1:13 in this CNN video: http://www.cnn.com/videos/us/2017/09/28/bill-weir-vieques-island-destroyed-dnt.cnn/video/playlists/bill-weir-in-puerto-rico/ The Cat & The Mermaid - the videos of them working to make the dream of living aboard a reality: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwkC0CouHTUieYD03D_xjBQ/videos ___________________________________________________________
