Terrific video Erik. You perfectly captured the stress associated with crossing the Norwegian Sea when she is not in a good mood. Bravo.

Ever notice how seasickness seems to evaporate away when you're scared and busy handling the boat? When non-sailors ask me if there's any cure for seasickness I tell them, "Yes. Terror." Well, that and sailing all the time. But sometimes it's not possible to sail on the ocean multiple times per week in order to keep your sealegs and you just have to tough it out. Another great video. I look forward to the next chapter in this saga.

Another Brilliant and interesting Video thx Mate 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Scary, but Sailing, filming, the video - it's all a masterpiece! Love mum ❤

Who needs 'Gone With The Wynns' after finding this channel!! 👍👍

Erik! Im buying my first boat because of you!!! Please, do not stop! You will hold us all fast!!!

21:10 - me thinks the dolphins are coming along side to give you their salute of approval, as if to say: "Way to go, Skipper... you're doing it!"

Erik ! This one of the most hardcore sailing video you’ve done ! Tessy is not a simple sailing boat !: She is a tough Viking Drakkar !!!!!! Awsome !!!!

One of the best sailing videos I’ve watched, brilliant story telling and editing. Thanks.

❤👍👍👍You are one gutsy guy !!! FANTASTIC SAILING !!! STAY SAFE !!!!! From British Columbia, Canada

Wunderschöne Bilder und ein eindrucksvoller Törn! I love it❤

Epic travel ...!!!! Fab journey and exploring ...look fwrd 2 next ..!!!..

Contessa made a hell of a boat. These videos are better than anything on network TV. Thank you

Yes, Back at the North Sea! Very impressive conditions and getting them on camera! Love it!

Erik, Your videos are great! No Bull Shit Just Sailing plus historical and cultural insights! You share your part of the world in a unique way, Love it! Be safe my friend and thank you!

Don't you dare stop brother can't wait for this one

You the best Erik, you got big kahoonas.

You always leave me impressed Erik! One thing- consider installing an Antal mainsheet track and slider system. I have one and it allows me to reef under load either upwind or downwind. Important when the main needs to come down quickly in big wind. Hope the next leg is less demanding.

Thanks for new video! Rough seas, confident decisions. Eager to experience north Atlantic.

Oh you are a tease. Looking forward to the next one

ERIK I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS I am grieving for the sea after living 20 plus years on South Padre island. I am inland now and getting health treatment. I have a lot of ancestry Scotland. Thanks again+; Phoenix in San Antonio,Texas

Biggest waves I've ever seen..Wow..Awesome.

One of your best. They started good and just get better.

Love the First Mate Tiger!

Another great video. Thank you for posting!

Great stuff! Love watching man against the sea!

love your channel mate, and your commentary and I want to do what you are doing one day. Great to see you coming to Scotland, the land I was born!

Thank you Eric, great adventure.

Erik your some boyo you’ve got what we Irish would say you’ve got liathroidi anna mor and doing it when you’re not feeling well you came alive when you seen the big waves and you had control over your boat fair play to you you’re an inspiration.

Nice to see you finally wearing a deck vest and a tether line. Stay safe out there.

I have watched every one of your videos - and I’ve just realised why your channel fascinates me so much……it is because you are probably a nutcase and attempt passages that i would never dream of making. You have my total respect and admiration. Keep going Erik and safe travels.

Very nice footage Erik! I was at the Orkneys recently. In Kirkwall and at anchor in East Weddel Sound, just outside the Causeways. Looking forward to the other parts of your journey. We just missed each other in Inverness…

So nice of Erik to take us over the island, while Erik took a rest and hopefully found himself :D

Magical video Erik! So good that nature rewarded you with some dolphin company after the heavy seas. Beautiful.

Another great video, and voyage Erik

900th LIKE... here we go... I remember the time when you gave Magnus a ride; one of my favorite episodes. Tiger needs some Velcro skivvies to secure him to the deck.

Another fantastic video Eric!

Once again, well done Eric ! You have smashed another epic adventure. Thank you for taking the time to film beautiful Scotland through contemptuous weather conditions. What an incredible experience to remember ! Tessie sure has it !!

Love your cinematography Erik, hope you're feeling better!

The standard of sailing videos. Thank you sir. 👌

A very honest sailing. Kudos to you, Eric.

Always look forward to your vids.

I really love watching your videos Erik! Thanks for sharing from Idaho, USA!

Brilliant, inspirational! Well done!

Great video! Very exciting and inspiring.

Fantastic, thank you

LOVE these videos! Thanks Erik!

Your adventures are beautiful to watch !!

5:55 Erik is stronger than he knows🎉

Indeed It was a great start for great journey, thanks for this shared happiness from the North Sea.

A really super adventure with great filming. A big thank you, Erik.

Nice to know even the pros get sea sick!

Love your action sailing videos! We sailed to Cape Cod this summer from Long Island Sound. I'd love to do some sailing around Scotland someday! Keep making the great videos!

good to see you are back - great video thank you

Fabulous...good lesson in reefing the sail..."högum seglum eftir vindi"..bon voyage

You have no idea how much I enjoy and look forward to seeing your video’s Erik !!! You put a smile on my. Face always!

And another awesome video!!!! Cheers from Alberta.

Good to see you back Erik

Glad to see you are using safety gear now!

Amazing content Erik! 👍👋🛞⚓

Now that’s sailing ⛵️

Super, soo happy to follow your channel from slmost the beginnig of it!!!

Thank you for coming to scotland and showing the world what a wild ride the seas are i would not change it for the world makes u feel alive ❤

Rad stuff Erik.

Je vous regarde du Québec ... j'apprécie ce que vous faites et vous remercie de nous faire rêver (french friends)

Good thing you got that reef in when you did!

Ταξιδεύουμε και εμείς μαζί σου, από Ελλάδα.

The quality of the images are Hollywood quality. You can win an Oscar !!!!

brilliant loved it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another excellent video well done Viking !!

You are fearless Erik. Great vids. I've always thought that when going down wind it is better to stow the main and have the boat pulled along by the jib rather than pushed along by the main. Easier on the self steering gear and more dynamically stable. Cheers.

Wow that was amazing, I must admit though to feeling queezy on the first part across the North Sea.

Wonderful adventuring!!

Superb, such a pro video and what a great sail, awesome to see

Yes! I was looking forward to this. This has made my day!

Cool vid as usual! Cool history lesson too Erik, thanks!

Thank you.

Great vid Eric… RESPECT ❤

Vilt eventyr Erik. Gjør din greie

❤ ⛵......loving your videos. 😊

As always an excellent video. That crossing looked tough!

Yaas! Buzzing for this series! More power to you, my Viking friend!

This is the exact kind of video escape I need! Much love from London!

I am a very big fan of yours Erik and I would like to thank you for sharing your adventures for us all to enjoy. The story telling and the editing along with the narration is real quality stuff. Thanks once again for making this video and I am already looking forward to the next one.

Once again, Norwegian sailors plunder the British Isles. May Nessie devour them all!

Crazy sailing, great video

Eric, it has been amazing to see what your boat has become. It is absolutely tricked out with super-capability now!! What an incredible girl she is and she will take good care of you in the worst of conditions!

great footage as always thank you

you are a legend!

Woow, this is spectacular

Beautiful and well done!

Hey Erick, being single handed most of the time, have you ever thought of equipping the boat with an electric winch, specifically for the main. Is that a possible add on? That would make sailing easier, not to mention safer. "Crossing the North Sea - Norway to Orkney Islands," is an intriguing escapade, cant wait for follow-up episodes.

That's it Erik... just go with the flow!!! Set the course and trim the sails... let the boat do the rest....enjoy!!!

Nice trip. Be careful and take care 😊👍🏻👍🏻

Well that's got to be the fastest tour of Orkney on KZfaq! 👍😂

Fantastisk video som alltid Erik

awesome storytelling as usual! 🫶🏻

Danke!

Sono posti bellissimi, grazie per aver condiviso questa tua avventura.
