World Strongest Tidal Current runs up to 20 knots! - Saltstraumen in Norway - Sail Mermaid S4 E07

World Strongest Tidal Current runs up to 20 knots! - Saltstraumen in Norway I start this episode out by attending a man over board drill with the crew from "In The Same Boat" before I get back on the road and continue to Saltstraumen just south of Bodø. This should absolutely be on your list of what to see in Bodø. Saltstraumen is the world strongest tidal current which moves up to 20 knots and moves up to 400 million cubic metres (110 billion US gallons) of seawater through a 150-metre wide strait every six hours. It also creates giant whirlpools of up to 10 meters in diameter and 5 meters deep. From the shore i got to watch RIB's play in the maelstrom of Saltstraumen Contents: 00:00 Opening 00:41 Intro 01:00 Man Over board drill 04:15 HLR drill 06:08 Saltstraumen - the beginning of the world strongest tidal current 07:02 Saltstraumen - the real thing.
