Beautiful! And wonderful little ship. But, I wish you could have shown pictures of the old whaling station. Ever since reading Shackleton’s Endurance I’ve always wanted to visit South Georgia.
OMG I've seen lots of terrifying sailing videos but this one takes the cake. The ice! Over everything. The cold. The waves. That there would be my idea of hell. Interesting and beautiful but my personal terror.
Ballistic effort boy's! Thankyou for summiting what looked like a hostile peak in reasonable conditions.Good luck with any other attempts in the future.Your in the hard corps division in my books.regards ado n spud.
I wonder how you deal with frozen gear around the boat, and also whether it becomes slippery on deck with the ide accumulation. I admire the skills and spirit. Stay safe!
As someone who considers a sail from Anegada to Jost van Dyke in 4 meter following seas a harrowing journey, rewarded by a strenuous trek up the beach to Foxy’s for a much needed drink, I cannot relate to the desire to sail and then climb in the high latitudes in any way. But kudos to these guys wanting to do so, and doing it successfully.
The men on deck are trying to chip off sea ice with a tiny ball pein hammer and a screwdriver, yet it turns out you had a load of ice axes on board for the climbers, they would have made a better job on that sea ice than the screwdriver!
@Sailing Resolution I've worked on trawlers off places like Iceland and Greenland and the tools used to knock off ice are not sharp at all, a bit like you.

In those days, this moovie reminds me the first days on a shore of lake Vättern, Sweden. It was windy, icy and very cool. Thank you!
Superb
CONGRATULATIONS AND SUCCESS!

I am amazed by the Shackleton Expedition, but I can only imaging what people like Skip think about it.
Always a good time when you have to get the orange hammer out to bash ice off the rigging!
The ocean must been a marvelous place before , Clean Full life
