Hey everyone! I wanted to share with you why I’ve decided to end the current boat project and start a new one. I know this isn’t the first time, but building boats is a unique process and a unique opportunity came. I grabbed it. You can't be too emotionally attached to any one path. Sometimes, despite all the effort, you realize that moving forward requires a new approach. You have to focus on what's best for the build, even if it means letting go of what you've already done. It's all about pursuing the best possible outcome, the fastest way to get to the NZ ice cream and that's exactly what I'm doing here. Thanks for your continued support!
So happy for you! I almost lost belief in seeing you set sail at all, but there you go! A ready to go (almost) boat, designed by yourself! This is incredible, cheers! all the best
I think it's a good decision for exactly the reasons you mentioned. When a good opportunity comes, you must take it. Maybe it will give you more joy to work on the Bris design again, upgrading it with new ideas from the plywood boat and other boats that you have built since the Bris. But this time all in divinycell, not plywood, which means it's not just a prototype. I think it's a good decision! I can almost smell the ice cream 🙂
Hello Sven. First of all, I want to say I am truly inspired by you. Your ability to change your mind on a thing that is so personal to you at your age is beyond fascinating to me. Compared to similar aged people in my life, I see stubborness, clinging onto what is familiar and visible distraught by unexpected situations. In your case I see adaption and an embrace for the unexpected. Keep doing you Sven!
I have learned not to be too surprised by these radical shifts. Such a great project to refit an older design of your own with your updated knowledge. It is spring here in New Zealand and the cows are busy preparing for your arrival. As a New Zealander I will be voluntarily taking on a regular quality control program of the nations ice cream producers to ensure quality remains high in anticipation of your arrival. Please feel free to check in at any time for a status update!
chacun de son côté on a fait la même navigation du sud Portugal à l'île de Lanzarotte chacun avec ses galères, ses joies et ses peurs...des souvenirs extraordinaires entre les constructions, les essais en Baltique la nav à 3 bateaux avec le Sofia de Christer vers Stockholm .. les plus belles années ... avec la rencontre de Sven sur la côte Ouest et la magie de dormir à bord de son Bris 6...grand merci Sven pour tout ses grands moments partagés...
Very happy for you! I like that you can switch things up and not get stuck on a single path. I enjoy the boat building and I would enjoy some sailing videos even more!!! Can’t wait to see you on an adventure sailing again. Ice cream awaits!
I met Mr Sven att Båtmässan Älvsjö when his Bris was new. Long time ago. more than 35 years ago. Wish I had one boat like this. I was 15 at the time and remember Sven got bigger beard those days.
Thinking outside the boat... I mean box. I,ve been sailing for 60years from El Toros to Tornado Cats and 50ft yachts and it's nice to see something pratical but unique. I want one.
Hi Sven. I am Gerry. I started the ice cream in New Zealand thread many months ago. I was using a different name, and account back then, but it was me. :-) I live in Christchurch and I had planned to travel to Dunedin to deliver the ice cream. It occurs to me that the ice cream will melt on such a long journey, so I will find the best ice cream in Dunedin, and I will take you there. Safe travels my friend. 🙂
Fantastic! We can see you have a passion for design and building boats, but having a base to start with will save lots of time and get you on the sea faster. I know I'll never build my own boat but if I could just buy a small boat and make it unsinkable and bulletproof I'd sail away today.
And why do I check in every day for years? Because Yrvind is open to ideas and opportunity, for the sake of ice cream... I learn so much from your modelling an open mind, and trying new things. This will likely be your first retrofit of your design, built by another. I look forward to a tour of the new to you boat, learn about the enhancements to the 30 ish year old design and learning of your plans to head to sea.... All the best!! 🍦
Can't wait to see you sailing your new boat. I just got a new blue water cruiser and I can't wait to get out there again. I'm an old guy too so you have been a great inspiration for me.
Hallo Swen, glad that you can adapt so quickly and not be stubborn like me in my older years. Go for that icecream and may you have fair, following wind all the way my friend.
Hello Mr. Sven, I was a fisherman and I've always wanted to sail the seas, My name is Ary and I would like to know where I can find the construction plan for this boat, could you tell me?
This is the boat that Johan silen sailed 12 years ago. I met Johan in sandvik on Öland sailing my westerly jouster . Johan had to turn back because of health issues. we spent a week together in sandvik having a good time. I think he named her Karin.
Hi Sven, I love your adventures and projects/experiments - thanks for showing them. May I ask - when you come into harbours, do they charge you as they do most yachts, by the metre? Or do they let you stay for a free? What's their attitude towards people making and sailing little experimental boats, in the various countries? Best wishes.
This boat from 30 years ago is better than the ones of last few years.. boats that were too narrow, too tender and too slow... This is better way to go than the recent foam boat
Hello Oscar, there is a great deal of information about Sven and his boats online - perhaps you will find the information you seek there. He has also written several books, they might help.
Återbruk är ju bra miljöval. En helt annan fråga: Varför är det ingen om använder hängkoj? Alltför obekvämt? Borde väl ha en fördel i orienteringen i horisontalled.
You can move center of of effort of the sail force giving her weather helm or lee helm depending on weather. Also reducing sail area is very easy just taking down one sail
If the ice cream in NZ is that much better, then I should keep silent. It's a pity for us 25k Subs, who tune in every day if you go away for so long. It was pleasantly chocking to see that actual production boats were made from the Bris concept. Could it be revived with the permission of Big Brother? Please tell us this story. Con: A cumbersome undertaking to modify an already finished hull with all the storage compartments you will need.
What is old is new again. Having a chance to use your experience to build on a past design, with a complete hull form, should get you on the water sooner.
@@SvenYrvindExlex That's a lot better than four I think. I also think Bris is a proven concept and tested so a save boat to go eat icecream in NZ. I am curious wich adaptations/improvements you are going to make and looking forward to you setting sail.
Have you ever thought of sailing to Mexico, Sven? A part of the Bahamas was said to be the most beautiful place on Earth by the TH-camr "Lady J Sailing."
There is havsfidra bris selfbuilds,two of them...but nothing comes out of it. I dont care im in Oxelösund ive been living on small boats for 10 years .sven likes the garage,he is never going anywhere again.....
I dont want to be mean.im the biggest asshoe of all,i lived svens life. But ten ten times harder.he is my hero kept me alive thru fosterhems with shit you dont want to hear about.sven and magnus uggla saved my life ! It might have been for nothing but they saved me for ahwile so i could do nice things.i made sankt görans spel on city hall work,and more.now. If i fell asleep and did not wake up it would be nice...im done.
@@snorungar70, if 'sven and magnus uggla saved' [your life], let Sven dream and work towards completion - and inspire many along the way (like he has done in the past). Earlier we got snippets here and there in media. Now his brief videos are easy to follow. Together with a lot of other stuff (politics, election, building, adventure, animals, etc) a daily (nightly) staple here. Try the mantra of lifting people up, and not pushing them down (but will admit it can be very very hard sometimes when one disagree vehemently with someone).

What a fine young man, how wonderful that he helps Sven realise his dream! This brings that ice cream so much closer!

Beautiful vessel! I liked the NZ ice cream goal. Might just adopt that one myself. Good luck and fair winds Sven.
Wow. Really glad for both of you!
Always loved the Bris design! ❤️
Thinking outside the boat... I mean box. I,ve been sailing for 60years from El Toros to Tornado Cats and 50ft yachts and it's nice to see something pratical but unique. I want one.
You are going to beat me to NZ now! Shucks..... This is like the perfect non-plan of action....so much to take in...WOW. Life is awesome
Awesome. The boat looks awesome - would love to get something smaller like that
Exciting! Seems like a great decision! Wishing you the best from San Diego.
What an awesome guy!
Well this is an exciting turn of events!!
Beautiful boat ..I would have done the same. I'm hoping you will come out to visit the Philippines too.
I like the new boat, and looking forward to the new features..
Good find! Looking forward to seeing the modifications.
Kia ora greetings from Aotearoa New Zealand what beautiful boat

Thank you Gilles glad you can see it
Cool little boat!!
Congratulations Sven with new boat.
Will be very intresting on future your plans and boat inproovments.
Best Luck!!!

This is a blue water cruiser. A very similar boat crossed the Atlantic with a husband and wife crew.
@@NeilBarrattcan you share some more information about this? I'm in love with this type (bris like) sailboat. Any information about this is welcome
This is really cool. Not at all what I expected you to be working on now.
Wonderful news!
Hello from New York City!
beautiful boat, that must be a special feeling to get a boat you designed yourself!
wow! I'm really happy for you- the universe just saved you 2 years of hard work. slab some yellow paint on her and of you go! Fair winds my friend (-;
Now that was Nice to be offered a Boat you designed 35 years ago! Very good gesture no doubt!
Hallo Swen, glad that you can adapt so quickly and not be stubborn like me in my older years. Go for that icecream and may you have fair, following wind all the way my friend.
Hello Sven from Hobart Tasmania
Wow! What a change!!! Let's see how many modifications you will make... 🤔

Terrific
That boat is dope
Движение это жизнь.

What a beautiful boat, where can I find one?
Hello Sven, is it possible to download the Bris leaflet? or purchase a copy?
Sorry but
At the moment all my time is focused on the new boat.
No time for anything else
Hello Oscar, there is a great deal of information about Sven and his boats online - perhaps you will find the information you seek there. He has also written several books, they might help.
@@SvenYrvindExlex Good to be focused, good day
@@lapsedluddite3381 I will try thanks
The simulation provides, looks good
What happened to the Havsfidra?
I gave it away.
Much to big for me
Återbruk är ju bra miljöval.
En helt annan fråga: Varför är det ingen om använder hängkoj? Alltför obekvämt? Borde väl ha en fördel i orienteringen i horisontalled.
On sailing ships with a lot of rooms it can swing.
On a small boat there absolutely no space for such a thing
Congratulations Sven. How much time do you anticipate saving by using this boat versus completing the ocean philosopher build?
The big thing is that it will keep the boat much drier and warmer in the Roaring Forties a very cold and stormy place
I love your plan. Have some ice cream for me.
I wonder why 2 or 2 masts is better than 1 in a style of boat such as this?
You can move center of of effort of the sail force giving her weather helm or lee helm depending on weather.
Also reducing sail area is very easy just taking down one sail
@@SvenYrvindExlex great answer thanks
nice boat
Congratulations on your new narco-sub
How much would a boat like this cost to build ?
I do not know
But it is Divinycell epoxy and polyester fibers not glass all expensive high quality components
Yeah that's things I can't get here in the Philippines
If the ice cream in NZ is that much better, then I should keep silent. It's a pity for us 25k Subs, who tune in every day if you go away for so long.

did you make him an offer for the trailer?
I have a friend with a trailer

tidy little vessel
Do i understand correct that you now have four boats?
I have 2 boats one is for sale
@@SvenYrvindExlex That's a lot better than four I think. I also think Bris is a proven concept and tested so a save boat to go eat icecream in NZ. I am curious wich adaptations/improvements you are going to make and looking forward to you setting sail.
Hello sven , do you know what happened to the previous owner of Karin ,Johan silen.
I met him 12 years ago on his way to Helsinki with Karin.
Have you ever thought of sailing to Mexico, Sven? A part of the Bahamas was said to be the most beautiful place on Earth by the TH-camr "Lady J Sailing."
I am bound for NZ and ice cream
@@SvenYrvindExlex A beautiful place, and also other interesting islands not so far from NZ. Have you set a circa date for when to sail to NZ?
@@MrCatlover It is work done not almanack that determines departure
@@SvenYrvindExlex I agree with you. But so many bad things happen in the world now by design. I want you to be ready for whatever comes!
I guess you'll be abandoning your latest build?
It would be so cool if someone else could finish this project, modifying it in a way it can become a real sailing vessel and not only a "mock up".
I am trying to sell it € 2000
