Large bathroom with a tub, rugged expedition look, and cheerful curtains!. What a beautiful unique boat!.
We hauled out right beside that boat when we were in Tromsø. What a beast indeed! Looks like a great arctic platform. Enjoy!
Yall should go aboard an do a artic trip together!
Yep, everyone hauls out there... First time I saw Arktika was when I hauled s/y Sylvia there 🤪 See you in Iceland or somewhere!
Dan,
You are a bad ass brother, Your twist on Erik was legendary! Hope all of Kikas family in Haiti is OK. Keep sailing........
Great looking boat now you just need to teach him how to mount that electric sail drive

You are living what is many of us watchers' dream 🧿 So, please keep us filled with every aspect of it, itty bitty struggles and boatwork, not only the polished side! This comment is purely for more motivation, I believe there is a lot of people like me watching and planning silently, but be sure you are touching many souls than you think from all around the world! Godspeed my friend, all the way from Greece!
Oh my that boat looks like she's about to conquer both Arctic and the Antarctic, beautiful.
the boat will need an "Ant" prefix ! Btw, you don't conquer the sea, the sea allows you passage, if she pleases !
I don't think anyone is going to condemn you for not owning the boat outright. You're an adventurer. You climb mountains and then ski down them. You sail the Arctic. You solve problems and then share those solutions with the rest of us. Your channel is awesome and so are you. Keep it up. You are much admired, and appreciated.
Now THAT is a boat. Very exciting.
OMG, what a find, that boat is perfect for your plans, so clean and looks absolutely well maintained!!! Sounds super exciting to me and I look forward to your new journeys! Thanks so much for your wonderful episode!
You do YOU! Ignore the haters! Found you from TallyHo ad suggestion. I got mad respect for those who set out in what some would think isn’t Resort Safe. Life is a journey… enjoy the ride!
Hello. A few minutes ago I decided to see if there was any new videos and basically at the same time you had uploaded this video. Impeccable timing. The boat is truly a monster.
The right tool for the job, awesome well built for cold sailing areas, great boat. Nice condition and strong shelter for the weather and seas you intend to survive in. Congrats!
I am very happy to see that Arktika will be back in the water, as previous owner has made many interesting voyages and photos. I know the new "owner" will likely do the same! You are the right person for that boat! It has so much potential. I am genuinely happy to see it go to an admirable sailor who can use it to do what it was meant to do.
Also enjoyed your tour of the boat. META makes some great (famous for expedition boats) boats, and it is a great pedigree. Boat's like that deserve an owner who will use it to the full potential it has. I can imagine you will be doing some "expedition" type sailing, and your crew will be lucky to be aboard it with you. I hope you will do the Northwest Passage in it someday and show us your voyage in video. I am subscribed and always enjoy your videos. Fair winds (and plenty of fuel)!
thanks a lot Uhlich and happy to see you're following along. Nice to see that you're familiar with the previous owner's journeys, very interesting stuff... 😎
Who cares what everybody says, what matters is what you want! I have sailed to Greenland and Iceland from Deutschland many times and it's an adventure you will love!
Really excited for this next phase! Have been missing the Arctic allure.
It is so good to finally see a video of Arkitka. That boat is a beast with so much room for friends, gear, and food it is going to be a great platform for adventure to Iceland, Greenland, and perhaps a northwest passage to Russia! That would be an incredible journey for sure! I like the idea of a closer to real time format. Your past video are amazing for showing beautiful scenery that is wonderfully blended with amazing scenery complimented with your story telling. Please oh please include the epic drone shots on your new journey that you gave us in past ones! Thanks for sharing and I look forward to watching the next video!
Good to see you back in action Hugo..& your new teammate is illuminating & impressive in so countless ways...so stoked for you & your partners & of course for your sweet Sohvi .
Amazing - this man does more in 3 days than most TH-camrs do in months. That is a real boat as well.
hi Alan, thank you. I don't think I'm THAT productive though! :D
Yes!! A late comment, but only seeing this now. I am amazed at the progress he made! So relaxed - so much achieved - but, after looking at his other vids, masses of knowledge about boats, plus arctic sailing, skiing, survival - I am a great admirer of Nordic people!
Twin screws in tight spots is a piece of cake.
Dont even turn the wheel. Get the rudders straight and drive/turn with the engines like a tank
👍😁👍
If you've got no space to practice, I can understand your apprehension. You could see if you can get a couple of inflatables to push against for that first exit, particularly if it's windy and you don't have the option of holding off for a calm.
One pusher either side of the bow, pointing aft, and with spring lines fore and aft? You should be fine using the throttles equal and opposite for changing the heading (slewing), but if you go off line to one side (so you don't have room for the swing of whichever end of your vessel would clip if you try to get back into mid channel), it's trickier. Obviously a simple system of hand signals needs to be well thought out to direct the angle of each tug to the boat, and whether to push or pull.
If you can't arrange that and it's windy, err towards the wind at all times -- then you can just take some speed off if you've overdone it, and let the wind reposition you, but don't wait too long because obviously it will take a while to gather way again, and the whole time you will be blowing sideways.
At least you don't have a tall rig to provide lots of wind resistance!
If that's not an option, you could warp it out, even in a strong breeze, with two boats and five lines, provided they are good at following instructions. Take your time!
This looks like a superb move
Very envious.
Your RPM gauge is probably fine. It gets its signal from the alternator on diesels. If the alternator is not working, the RPM gauge won't either. Fix the alternator and it will start working.
⬆️ some tachs are direct (cable) drives.
NOTE: Not all diesel engines tachometers are from the alternators.
I can’t believe the fuel capacity and engine range of this boat! Just wow! I can’t wait to see your next 20 episodes! Learning to dock a beast of this weight takes nerves of steel, but with opposing thrust from the twin engines you’ll be able to maneuver quite well. I am so excited for you!
Thats a briliant plan, i love it. Its so realistic and economic. Instead of buying a boat and selling it 3 years later with unknown loss and a lot of trouble just lease it for the time you need it, much better! I wonder why not more people do that, so much better than being stuck on the same boat for 20 years while it doesnt fit your plans after the first 3 years anyway.
Thanks Schutt and nice to see you think like that about the plan as well!
That boat is EPIC! so happy for you, and looking forward to what you cook up in the future.
Happy to see you back ! This boat is like a safe. I am french so I know very well the Meta shipyard. You can trust on it. The famous french sailor Bernard Moitessier had a boat from Meta… Of course this is an heavy boat so not a very fast boat but for your project purpose this will be one of the best choice. Congrats !!!!
I really dont care how realtime the vids are. Its nice but dont stress. If people complain it means you are doing it right.
thanks Brian, I'll try not to stress ;) really the realtime updates help me keep motivated as well, i find it's exhausting to go through old footage etc :)
How exciting for you! I will be watching your progress with anticipation. Being an old fart, I'm wary of aluminium hulls (my yacht was wooden), but I suppose that there are now modern methods to counter corrosion issues. Decades ago I saw some very bad damage caused by just a small amount of copper wire whiskers sitting in the bilge of a French aluminium yacht for a year or so. Any exposed aluminium on the hull becomes a "sacrificial anode", so a small scratch or ding can lead to big problems, as can stray currents from the electrics. But I'm sure you are well aware and on top of it!
I am impressed…This boat will deliver and it might take some time to get used to all her capabilities…But you both are no rookies…Congratulations..
Don’t pay a bit of attention to what everybody says you’re following your dream and that’s the only thing that matters 👍
Steady as she goes captain
That’s one hell of a fixer upper that boat has a lot of potential you’ll have great fun and adventures to remember for a lifetime
So good to see when the right boat finds the right owner - looking forward to seeing where you go with this. Congratulations.
Really pleased for you Juho. That is one exciting boat and who cares if you own or lease it. It is built for a purpose and I’m sure you will get the best out of it. Anyone with a boat knows we just look after it and are custodian until it is sold or passed onto the next owner. A lot to learn no doubt about the systems and how she manoeuvres under power but I’m sure you will be fine, slow and steady wins the race. She is in amazing shape for a boat left for three years. Best of luck and if you need a crew let me know. 😁 Andy UK
Hi as long as it works for you do not worry what other people think because there’s always going to be people that haven’t got the guts to do what you’re doing and just couch chair sailors I’m looking forward to seeing more videos especially splashDown with the boat Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia
Wow! You are not kidding when you say this boat is a beast! Quite surprised about the move. This is going to be one very large project. Though you filled us in on some reasons, we do hope you are able to tell us more on what took you in this direction and why you decided to make such a large move. I can honestly say this boat will be very good for you and your type of adventuring. I think this a wonderful move for you. Wishing you all the best.
It looks to have survived the relative neglect extremely well!
That not a large project at all... a few minor repairs to worn out parts and some antifouling. I have walked around 2 year old beneteau's that are in worse shape than this.
@@ktmbikes9227 Band NEW Beneteau's are in worse shape than this boat! :-)
Why worry about what other people say ! You are an amazing person and you should always follow your heart in everything you do. Have a great journey on that beautiful boat.
I recall how tense I was when we launched our 52F 30 ton ketch. Everyone I ever knew where watching me moving it from the slings to the dock. You will always remember the first time. And look at your boat, you are now a true Captain.
A beautiful, classic boat.
with this one, beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder ;)
That hard chine was a surprise. After thinking about it, though, it would make sense for an expedition craft. You should be able to be hit by a very strong gust in inclement weather and enjoy a more forgiving behaviour by the boat. I'm looking forward to seeing you in the water.
Excited to see what you and your friends get up to with this amazing machine in one of the last true, terrifying wild parts of the world. Most people don't know what beyond reach of help means. Full reliance on yourself and the machine and the work you have done to prepare her. I'll be watching - thanks
Amazing boat, what a beast. What a fantastic opportunity to see some countries that are really in the wilderness area's. Can't wait to see your journey.
I'm as happy as you are. A tank of a boat ready for you to take her into the ice.
Alluring Arctic is back! Good deal! Flat landers in the sage brush sea enjoy your ocean field trips! 🤠
Shes a beautiful boat. For your purposes,well suited. Study up on twin screw boat handling. Chapman Piloting & Seamanship is a good source for information. Having good comms with your deck crew is essential when the helm is inside. Radios, intercoms, or even cell phones using headsets will make things go better. Best of luck with your new boat.
Glad to see you back on the air as you have been missed with your wonderful videos of Sweden and Norway and the winter sailing, etc. The boat looks great from what I can see and am looking forward to more great videos. I am sure that you will be able to maneuver the boat out of the marina without any major issues. Take care and stay well.
Wow congratulations. Perfect boat for you. I agree don't worry about fancy filming work just film and post. Looking forward to next episode.
In slow speeds you dont need the rudder, you can turn it easy when have twin screws, try in open water and see how it respond on differential trust in your propellers. I dont think manouvers will be a problem when you get used to it. Good luck on your adventures.
Things are going to be really interesting.
Great video! Just remember to keep rudder straight all the time and only use motors for steering. That is atleast how we do it (Nelson 42). Changing rudder angle and then putting one motor backwards and one forward and soon you have no idea how to correct your movement.
+1 catamarans are the same
This is a power boat with sails. Love the railings. I am all about safety and not falling off the boat. Looks like a strong safe boat. Not my style. I am a tropical sailor. But and however, lots to admire for what you want to do.
Best of luck! Thanks for sharing!
check to see if the props are counter-rotating. If they are docking is a breeze. Run one fwd and other reverse and she should spin in it's own length. You might have to use some helm. A set of 2 way radios with headsets are marriage savers. No more screaming directions at the crew when you are docking or manoevering in tight places. Finally you might be surprised about trying to save fuel by using one engine. The engines are normally set with the props for a certain RPM and load factor. Nordhavn brought out a new model and ran extensive fuel consumption testing finding very little difference in using 1 or 2 engines on the N41 trawler which will run at cruising speed with only 1 engine at hull speed. I would call your ship a motor-sailor trawler expedition yacht. I've been following you since your post on heating. Very well done. You don't need to paint aluminum boats other than anti foul on the bottom
That's a pretty rad move. Fantastic boat built for the alluring Arctic latitudes... And Antarctic... Have fun, looking forward to see whatever you share on here.
thanks a lot, and yes that's the plan! :)
This looks so exciting. Would love to know the back story on how all this came about. Can't wait to see your adventure.
Beautiful project boat. Your young and capable have fun😊
Please keep posting the fantastic nature and landscape footage. To my option you provided the most beautiful videos of the Artic
Great to see you guys are back! Look forward to your journey. Awesome boat!!
Don't Fret about what people think, It's your life, live it your way,
Soooo impressed with this fellow. But when I first went into the cabin I would have been hollering for joy that it wasn't full of mold and pack rats! Gorgeous!
After watching a few sailing channels in warmer regions, I was aching to find one for the polar areas. A trip to Antarctica few years back confirmed my feeling that I would prefer the colder areas and love the ice. I've just subscribed so that I can live the adventure with you. Fair winds and calm seas!
Big Congreats ...I can´t wayt for your next adventures...all the best
My husband and I just started watching your channel!! We are really enjoying everything you have shared❤❤❤
Excellent. I'd rather watch this than any video of newer/plastic yachts. Looking forward to following your journey. I wish you safe passage.
What an amazing boat! Really looking forward to see the progression of this story.
Wow the begining of a great adventure for sure! Can't wait to see more episodes.
thanks Marco, more to come!
I find you completely amazing an to Kno that kinda option is out there gives me much hope it's like a rent to own house.... So happy for you this boat is you ... I'm so excited to see where an what you get up to.... Super adventure abounds..... Thanks for sharing your life with us... Grateful for the lessons ✌🏼💗😊❣️
it is your life, your plan, go for it, congratulations
We got exactly the opposite in boat philosophy, I just got a new yacht everything in carbon, slick, fast and very sexy, you got a battle ship ready for Greenland. My boat would not last a day in Arctic and my crew complain if the temperature gets below 20C. I Love yachts that are build for purpose and your yacht is certainly that. Amazing piece of kit absolutely love it, can’t wait for more of your adventures. By having twin engine with the props apart will give you great manoeuvrability.. . You will be able to turn on a 10 cent piece… I haven’t got big balls to do what you do, but I can live your adventure through your channel. 👍😄
On one hand you can sail fast around the weather, on the other you take it head on. I know alot of cruisers are adopting the fast boats and just using the modern weather knowledge to avoid issues all together and sail around them when the present themselves.
@@greatlakespowerstrokefx4 well our carbon flyer could certainly do that, but my wife just likes nice and warm weather anyway so there is zero chance for us being caught in bad weather 😂 Sailing around Arctic is just something we will do through this TH-cam channel. It is so much more comfortable 😄👍
@@martineyer5336 cant really blame you. If i wanted to do what hes doing, id get the boat he got. Its pretty sweet. I grew up racing tartan tens so comfort is a foreign concept to me. Our boat is refrigerator white with 9 ply marine plywood for bulkheads. Zero teak lmao. All business
@@martineyer5336 zero chance of bad weather......mmm..yeah okay. Skippy.
@@j_rainsgoat3929we are fair weather sailers, nice and sunny or we just stay home 😂🏴☠️
It's like riding a bicycle. Push the right hand telegram forward and the left hand back and it turns left. You don't need the rudders for that effect. Other way is other way.
If you have a bow thruster, you can make it go sideways... :-)
Congratulation on Your new boat. I'm very much looking forward to follow your new adventures. Don't worry too much of controlling the boat. Two engione boats are easy compared to songle engine boats ;-D
Congratulations. She is a big, beautiful Beast of a travel companion.
May you have safe and extraordinary adventures together.
Wow! That's serious solid boat there. Whatever works for you guys and definitely sure don't care what others think or say.
Dude your awesome! You have a dream and vision. You are making both a reality. Inspiring
Great project !... Leave the bad comments on the docks where you are rarelly seen !... All the best !... 👍⛵
Thank you !!!
6:35 I know this was a year ago but, wow, this is really exciting! Just found your channel the other day, love that you're doing winter sailing. Greetings from Newfoundland.
Such a nice boat. I’m looking so forward to seeing your adventures on it.
What a great deal for all involved! I totally get it! Good for you, and great for the owner! A sitting boat rots so very quickly!
Where Is Juho? Oh he is on the shores of Greenland somewhere surrounded by winter ice, What Is he doing? Enjoying a nice drink at the fireplace in his new boat…. While the tub fills…..😁😎 very cool new chapter!
She looks like a proper high-latitude boat. Very happy for ya!
That was exciting to watch you explore your new vessel and she’s a beast. I will be looking forward to the new adventures and wish you safe seas. Hold fast!!
Badass! Do whatever it takes to GET THAT BOAT!!!
Sooo happy to have found this channel about a month ago.. watched all your back vids and was immediately pulled into your beautiful adventure. Amazing new boat! Lovely week to you and Sohvi🌺
Congratulations on the awesome expedition boat. I can't wait to see where you take her.
Wow what a boat; right boat for the right person! Really looking forward to what you will do with her! Don't listen to any negative comment, takes guts to do something different. You have my support and wishing you success! Good luck (but I believe seamen make their own luck).
Now that's quite the no-bullshit approach to arctic boating! Glad to see that, You'll have to master a steep learning curve but I'd suppose that will be one of the allurig developments You will face .... I wouldn't be sure I'd take the risk of having co-owners again, but there are co-ownerships which indeed do work out for all parties ..... a thing people recurrently narrate at least, while I would not know one of those in reality to be honest. You'll be able to induce interesting "monster-clips" for the channel for sure with that thing, and I will be keen on learning how all that will work out for You.
Anyway, congrats, thanks for sharing, and keep it afloat!
what an incredible boat, you can store a snowmobile on the deck :) Have fun and best of luck. Look forward to this next chapter in your adventurous life.
I am shocked but excited about this boat, it's definitely another level above what you had and filled with robust systems that I am looking forward to learning about! I think that the twin screws and lack of a significant keel will make it easier to maneuver than you think.
I'm sure after half an hour of practice, Juho will be just fine, but I can understand that having to get it out of a tight spot without being able to get that practice first, and without being able to see the boundaries properly, would be a challenge, especially in a breeze!
Lucky you...go for it!!
I would love to see more of the maintenance and recommissioning! Please don't skip those parts, I want to see the upgrades and the work you do before takeoff.
I am sooooooooo excited for you!! And I’m excited for me to see it all unfold!
Hey. So glad the journey continues.
Drew
Very exciting. All the best and Godspeed.
No complaints here. Great boat. I'm sure you'll make it work for you....safely. looking forward to seeing it's progress.
Wow. Just outstanding
Lol, its a happy laugh! Like your accent, honesty. God bless
that's an amazing piece of ocean going machinery. I'm excited to see how your voyages go!
Awesome Juha, well done on your new beast, looking forward to following your adventures.
Wonderful video. I agree with the others, this twin engined vessel should handle better than you expect, especially if it has a bow thruster. 47' seems immense, but in reality it's pretty manageable. Go slow, steady and have friends onboard to help with fenders and such. Good luck with the multiple ownership, hope that works out well for you. Your adventures are always extreme to me, and very interesting. This vessel should make them even better. God's speed.
thanks Tom and thanks for the well wishes :) we'll be careful! ;)
Happy New Boat.
Arktika is a pretty famous boat, caroff duflos design…more a motorsailor than a sailboat…if i’m not mistaken the previous owners spent winters frozen in the ice high up north in the arctic with their dogs…or they went the furthest up north to the north pole or something (back in the days before the arctic melting)…curious to see your future adventures with it.
@@John-Nada th-cam.com/video/pqPq2OvHP8Q/w-d-xo.html
Actually it is a Joubert design. I have the same hull but with a retractable keel both welded in the Meta yard using the Strongal method i.e.heavy plate with little internal structure.
@@vraymond108 l was convinced that i was right and i was gonna show you, but it turns out you’re right and my memory is not what it was 😂 cheers…
@@donaldvanvliet9039 it happens to the best of us.
Congratulations to this great yacht!
... a very robust design with redundant rudder or motor
... and very, very comfortable
... you can sail well and live in the far north.
Best regards Werner from southern Germany
Well looking forward to ur new adventure on ur new boat and this is my first time to see ur channel, u should know that u own the boat while millions don't own the boat, u are very lucky well u deserve it and enjoy it, don't worry what other people think.
