Calção Crio
🇧🇷 Uma placa de gelo com uma mancha escura que se mexe. Me aproximo e descubro um grande grupo de morsas. Animais enormes, quase do tamanho de metade do barco, com duas longas presas. Deixo o barco à deriva e algumas nadam ao nosso lado. Eu nunca tinha visto esses animais fora d’água. A placa de gelo é pequena demais para abrigar o grupo todo, e as morsas estão amontoadas umas sobre as outras. Algumas parecem brigar, batendo as presas umas contra as outras. Elas têm os hábitos típicos dos mamíferos que se sentem à vontade: dormem, arrotam e soltam gases que me deixam tonta no barco. Me afasto do grupo, porque ainda há muito gelo pela frente e, em breve, serei eu quem vai precisar desesperadamente dormir. 🇫🇷 Une plaque de glace sur laquelle on distingue une tache sombre qui bouge. Je m’approche et découvre un grand groupe de morses. D’énormes animaux, presque aussi grands que la moitié du bateau, dotés de deux longues défenses. Je laisse le bateau à la dérive et certains nagent à nos côtés. Je n’avais jamais vu ces animaux hors de l’eau. La plaque de glace est trop petite pour accueillir tout le groupe, et les morses sont entassés les uns sur les autres. Certains semblent se battre, entrechoquant leurs défenses. Ils ont les habitudes typiques des mammifères qui se sentent à l’aise : ils dorment, rotent et lâchent des gaz qui me donnent le vertige sur le bateau. Je m’éloigne du groupe, car il reste encore beaucoup de glace à parcourir et, d’ici peu, ce sera moi qui aurai désespérément besoin de dormir. 🇺🇸 An ice floe with a dark, moving spot on it. I get closer and find a large group of walruses. Huge animals, almost half the size of the boat, with two long tusks. I let the boat drift, and some of them swim alongside us. I’d never seen these animals out of the water before. The ice floe is too small to hold the whole group, and the walruses are piled on top of one another. Some seem to be fighting, clacking their tusks against each other’s. They have the typical habits of mammals that feel at ease: they sleep, burp, and pass gas, which makes me dizzy on the boat. I move away from the group, because there’s still a lot of ice ahead, and soon I’ll be the one who desperately needs to sleep.
Some trips stay in the group chat. This one didn’t. They were six college friends. Then they became ten - coworkers, partners, people who said yes. A week on a yacht in Greece turned into the trip they’ll talk about for years. Sunrise swims. Blue water you can’t believe is real. Quaint towns, quad bikes, late-night laughs… and the feeling you only get when your whole crew finally shows up. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to get your crew together for 2026… this is it.

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.
