#70 | Sailing Arctic Norway: Wrapping Up The Season & An Unforgettable Hike!

🌊 Embark on an unforgettable journey as we sail into the Arctic autumn! 🌊 In this episode, we take a deep dive—literally—into self-sufficiency aboard Polaris, testing out a brand-new piece of kit: the Blu3 Nemo tankless dive system. We’ll show you how it helps with underwater maintenance, from cleaning the hull to replacing propeller anodes, all in the cold waters of Norway. But the adventure doesn’t stop there! With autumn in full swing, we set off on a breathtaking 17km hike through Norway’s rugged wilderness, hoping to spot reindeer and moose before the first snow falls 🏔️. The landscape explodes in gold, red, and green, and as night falls, we are gifted with the first Northern Lights of the season. Winter is coming, and we’ll be here above the Arctic Circle, documenting every moment aboard Polaris. From surviving the polar night to preparing for the extreme conditions, we’ll share what it’s like to live on a sailboat in the harshest months of the year. ⏳ Timestamps: 00:00 Departure From Tromsø 01:00 Unpacking The BLU3 Nemo 04:19 First Trial Of The BLU3 Nemo 08:27 Arrival In Finnsnes 11:41 Fixing The Leaking Porthole 15:13 Epic Hike In The Wilderness 🎵 Music from Epidemic Sound: Trust In Me by Ramin Lakeside Stroll by Easy Wheelers Opening Acts by J.F.
