Nina and Henrik Sailing around the World

[YachtZephyr]

Fabulous. I fear I'd be doing that trip alone. My wife won't even sail on The Solent with me. :-(

[CapnZee]

You are THRUE INSPIRATION!!!

[spymaine89]

i have the cruising sailboat. but NO courage. all the best to you both,  ''i beleive you have it''.

[pbr2424]

Great inspiration in many ways.

[elBorrachoGuapo]

"...money frustrations"

I love the way she phrases blowing money on P.o.S gadgets.

[electrocamel]

Nice people but profoundly selfish and cruel to keep a poor cat holed up in such a tiny space unable to get away from the constant danger of falling overboard. Really badly conceived idea.

[SalPedi]

Well!...this was something else!...I've finally got the opportunity to see what a VIKING would look like in todays world!...and, he surely knows his stuff!...one hell of a man!...and his wife's pretty cute too!...but, these folks are simply FEARLESS, to take on a journey such as what I've just seen here.

I guess there's many of us who simply wish we could do something similar to what these folks did, but its not ever going to happen!.. but, it was fun watching!...

"Buon Voyage!"....

[Jasminewynja]

Poor cat's, they shouldnt be forced to live in such a small and dangerous place as a sailingboat. It should have been a lesson to them when their first cat died because of human ignorance....

[whispersoftheocean]

I'm jeallous! All the best - Wave

[algerdonna]

Female sailor here!  USCG Auxiliary Staff Officer and retired, ready to sail ! Send me an email...

[HenrikTorget]

@MinkRobinson Just go to Norway....

[latinamajor]

I need friends like these.

[olivierleo30usa]

for me, those people are the real millionaires of today, they have a tough but great life.bon vent a vous.

[doogymon]

Hats off to a great adventure. Contessa 26' and Nina have something in common we don't see much these days.....class.

[DinoDoesStuff]

@doogymon Check out Nina's bikini picture on their own website - great jebs!

[ReXySkate]

they are my aunt and uncle! its true

[akseakayaker]

OMG, Hey you guys its me Lauren from Alaska. I can believe I have come upon this video of you. Are you still thinking about coming up here?

[dmgcat]

Just think, the only thing keeping us from an epic journey to a far away place is a sailboat and a dream....some skills would help too...heh. Thanks you two for sharing the experience.

[yotozme]

GOOO Norway!!! the two are really vikings!

[ReadyOars]

excellent. a nice article.

[aleesify]

I know lots of girls like this. attractive ones funny, down to earth. Where are you meeting girls? You will not find a girl like this at a bar or club. If they look like they want to be on the set of a movie, move along. Get hiking, into sports (outdoor, not a gym) get onto sailing forums, websites chat rooms. take up para sailing and scuba lessons. Your bound to meet someone. Make sure your desirable as well!

[viceroytennis]

I am actually wanting to do this with my 1968 Westerly Cirrus (only 22ft). Any woman, like Nina, wanting to come along?

[mysticsailor1983]

i think i will have to sail solo cuz those woman now adays think only bout career , money . luxury house and car , jewels and a fat bank account ... where are those nature loving , adventurous females ? probably died while doing some crazy stuff :)

[pragmaticus123]

mysticsailor1983:

No...not at all. They ARE around!! You just have to find them by NOT looking for them.

[DouglasMiles1]

@pragmaticus123 do what you love and you will meet a partner who loves the same.

[MinkRobinson]

These people are my new heros! Where can I meet a woman like Nina? You're a lucky man Hendrick!

[Acceoss]

I couldn't agree more

[sailrbill]

@MinkRobinson

Got my soulmate but they are definately my heros lol

[isit1984yet]

@MinkRobinson this is always the problem my friend. for every 100 adventurous males, one female cohort is born. its proof god really hates us.

[rbennet19]

is this the old constellation???? the one sailed around in?

[dnicely42]

no, constellation was sold in Australia just recently. I think these two were already out there before constellation even started... same kind of boat though.

[akseakayaker]

OMG, Nina...Henrik here you are on You-Tube I'm so happy to see you here :-)

I'm looking forward to your return from Norway to Bika in California when I can read more about your wonderful voyage. How have you been? Lauren

[stonewall97]

When my investments pay off i will buy a sailboat and sail around the world. Also it is good to live in a sailboat because no property taxes and you get a special deduction on your taxes. AWESOME.

[soefinwhat]

Great video! I live on a power boat looking to sell and get a sailboat capable of crossing pacific

[Ockette]

I'm planning to do this in the same make of boat. Hoping to leave in May, 2011.

[bnorton101]

Great video. We are taking off in July for a round world trip also. We have a short intro on You Tube at bnorton101 if you are interested.

[luckydaze13]

A sail boat does not always have the rightaway over a motor boat. A trawler under tow or a tug under tow has the rightaway over sail. and any boat not under comand such as a cabel layer has the rightaway over all,

[chris42999]

You are tedious you do of course know...

[luckydaze13]

I ws a trwler captn for yrs, and still own one. I can't cnt the times when I had nets on the bottom and was chalnged by all the little sail boats that ventured out from Miami on a joy ride with the belief that they always have the right of way of way. But they always seemed to lern the hard way that they didn't, But hey I never charged them for the free lesson in snap desition menuvering ones they figured it out. and those that cmpailnd ws alws to go read the book.

[welderman27]

I'm currently looking for a bluewater boat so I can do what they do. Plan is to leave in 3 years

[bigrock403]

i have to admire nina . she seems so practical and beautiful as well. you people are living my dream. i do have a coastal cruiser but am now starting to look for a blue water boat. great video i would love to see more.

[paco75NZ]

Wow that looks great. Such a small boat!!

They even took the engine out. Sail a dinghy and thinkin about a keel boat.
