- In April 2012, We took Fleming 65 Venture II in the company of Norwegian owned Fleming 55 from Marstrand in Sweden to Stavanger in Norway - stopping at Skagen in Denmark en route. Once in Stavanger we visited the fjords and islands in the area.
Mr Flemming, I know I don't know you like thousands of others that have seen your films and own your boats. Sadly I cannot claim fame to the last bit of my previous sentence. One day maybe. BUT I feel like I know you, due to your calming voice and your total love of film making. Anyone can these days put images on You Tube. Only some and they are few, can produce masterpieces of cinematography to capture the heart. Thank you so much.
Beautiful vessel, beautiful scenery and beautiful music. Having had the cheek to complain about the "musak" on a recent video, I must say that this stunning video is enhanced by the evocative Peer Gynt Suite by Grieg. A stunning production all round; thank you Mr Fleming.
A delightful and revealing coverage of the Norwegian fjords. The vertical "walls" of the these fjords allows the Norwegian Navy Missile Armed patrol boats to "hide" close to these walls and even in some locations fire their surface-to-surface missiles from their hiding places. I have more than half a century of Naval service under my belt and in particular found exercising with Norwegian Navy elements, when I served on exchange with the Royal Navy, very challenging and rewarding. I thoroughly enjoy all your documentary-style videos. Thank you.

Thank you for these beautiful landscapes and animals, interesting comments in a peaceful voice, perfect music... Thank you to Mr Fleming for this amazing journey in Norway ... Thank you...
Another great one from Mr. Flemming. Thank you.
SparksMagoo thank you for the beautiful sights n narrative. Safe journey always
That cliff is almost intimidating. I love your work.
This is wonderful. Professionally recorded and produced.
I really love your videos. It is through your camera that I get to see parts of the world I would not otherwise get to see. Thank you sir very much. Also, I have not forgotten the video where you explain how you use the voyage to make improvements on your product. Should I ever come into the ability to buy a boat I would prefer one of yours.
Great demonstration of the stabilizer system and general pleasantness of the boat
Marstrand , my home harbor... Like this film so much... The choice of music is excellent, Morning of Gynt... I will sail this place a.s.a.p..
Now I'm homesick! Beautiful trip.
Refreshing no hype or antics commentary, thank you for enjoyable sights, I live in Boston area on the ocean, that place looks a lot like the Maine coast.
Really glad to have found Flemming video. Seen most of them and now also the Swedish westcoast and Norway.
Thank you Mr Fleming.
Love your videos and narration.
Norway looks beautiful.
Great video's, keep them coming please.
The nice thing about traveling with another Fleming yacht is that added perspective not available on a solo journey.
What an amazing journey ,
So relaxing
Nice work!
Thanks tony!!!
That Fleming looks pretty small between the waves!
Great video,think I saw venture 2 for sale in boat mag, must do lottery
Nothing is like Alaska, but this is a close second in the Awww Department 😊
.. lovely...

Mr Fleming, Are you planning a trip in the future to Greenland? It's a very interesting place worth a visit.
Actually, I visited Greenland in a Russian icebreaker - the Kapitan Khlebnikov - in 2016. I agree, it is a very interesting place and I would love to take Venture there. Alas, it is just too far to go from the west coast of North America. If you are interesting in watching my video of Greenland, you can find it on this channel.
How much all in did the trip cost ???? Fuel , food crew expenses ????
its a business expense - probably written off as marketing. so $0 for him. for fleming yachts its 1200 gallons of diesel per fillup or $6000 per tank. Probably does 0.5-1.5 mpg max so ballpark 5000 miles on these trips or 5000 gallons - $30,000 in fuel, probably another $10,000 for 1-2 crew for a month in salary, $3000 for food for 4 people, a few flights at $8000 or so, boat shipping expenses across the pond at $15,000. $50K-$60K all in. definitely a rich mans trip. Probably paid a bit for the helicopter too.
I would normally fly in - $2000 for two tickets, do a bareboat charter catamaran for $4000 in low season, spend $500ish on fuel and have the same experience at 1/10th the cost.
How did you traverse the Atlantic?

nice video tony....can venture travel across the atlantic ocean ...
She could by carrying extra fuel in bladder tanks. Three Fleming 55's have crossed the Atlantic. Our boats are really designed for extended coastal cruising rather than ocean crossings.
thanks tony ...what an amazing boat venture is ....amazing videos too
FlemingYachts you kindly played Brahms rather than the motor noise which must be exhausting after a couple of hours of navigation!
A kite would help ocean crossing
Sea tow?

I mean honestly. A wonderful video totally ruined by the music. Why can't you put some boom boom thud ziggety beep electronic crap on the soundtrack like all other TH-camrs. You are a non conformist sir. Keep up the good work.
