Sailing with the schooner 'Oosterschelde' From Tromsø to Bodø

The three-masted topsail schooner 'Oosterschelde' was built in 1917 as a sailing freighter. The ship sailed European waters and was regularly found along the Moroccan coast and in the Mediterranean Sea. The 'Oosterschelde' is the last remaining three-masted topsail schooner of the large fleet that once sailed under the Dutch flag. The ship is recognized as a monument with great cultural
and historical value. The 'Oosterschelde' provides its own maintenance and is deployed all over the world. As guest crew we also made a trip with the Oosterschelde from Tromsø to Bodø. It was an experience.

In the 1970’s this vessel was anchord in the port of Vlaardingen (near Rotterdam) right in front of the house where I lived at that time.

Mooi schip. En beladen met romantiek en geschiedenis.

[@trainsandships]

It was lovely. I wish I would come and have trip there. Beautiful ship!

Your film fulfilled a life long dream of mine, albeit in "virtual reality"; it was how you told the story with your editing. I actually prefer this longer version. I was particularly thrilled with the Journey; I have a fondness for Tromso and enthralled with Lofoten. Thanks for sharing,

Hello Peter and Good Afternoon from Florida. I want to express my sincere thanks for sharing this video. I am in love with 'Tall Ships'. Having learned a little about sailing a friends 32' Sloop on Lake Erie on over night excursions I can only imagine fulfilling the unrequited dream of crewing a tall ship on a voyage. Ah. That would be a dream come true for this aging man. I am particularly fond of the lines of a Schooner but also like square riggers as well. Especially the beautiful Tea Clippers of the 19th century. Cutty Sark and Flying Cloud being two that leap to mind. Thank you again Peter for sharing this as I vicariously live out the dream whilst viewing this. All the best to you with a wish for 'fair winds and trailing seas'.

Thank you for the nice commentary on my film. Let's hope the world will be travelable again soon

[@uzecell]

Superbe.

Je m'attendais à quelque chose de plus marin....
C'est une gentille croisière au moteur
Ce voilier merite de naviguer vraiment autour du monde...

L'année prochaine, l'Escaut oriental fera le tour du monde avec le voyage Darwin. Un voyage de 1,5 ans.

Народ хорошо отдохнул и природа красивая. Немножко завидую.

I love the ship and crew. Soon i will be on board again to sail three legs of the upcoming Darvin Trip.

[@PetersTravels0808]

The upcoming Darwin trip is a very nice trip. I am also already figuring out which part of the trajectory I will book for.

[@theoroth3669]

Thank you......

[@passinthru4328]

Well paced. Great pans of nature & life on the ship. Audio allowed the sounds of working the ship as well as the wind and seas to be heard above the music.

Very nice video, I enjoyed it very much! What scenery too. Not to be a nitpicker but she's a "topsail three-masted schooner" ;-) Cheers from sunny Italy!

[@brucemcmillan1149]

great attention to detail and rigging and manning this vessel. one criticism, like many of these cases there are so few images showing whats she fully looks like on the water.. oh, well. something maybe...

Hello Peter from Phoenix Arizona. Just a thought on filling your Jerry Cans What if you filled them in a confined state before capping them. A simple wood frame would do the trick.

[@paulpaxman]

Glad to see the safety harnesses on the sailors in the rigging!

[@PetersTravels0808]

Thanks for your comment

[@Davidcallard]

They would be mandatory.

[@zerofox7347]

Is there a reason they don’t use the winches to raise the sails?

[@jacksonraulerson6538]
