We film some of the largest waves ever caught on camera.
We work with 2 oil platforms that can accurately measure wave height so no guessing or exaggeration.

@104th IronMike Too bad Dale Earnhardt and Ayrton Senna didn't know they could just hit the brakes and come safely to a stop, huh?

You seem to ignore the Fastnet race where a fuckload of sailors have died in past years due to inclement weather. Should we call that off?

Handwaving away the preparation of bad weather sailors as a prologue to stupidity is ridiculous. Better not fly over an ocean! Your plane might crash and people will need to risk their lives to save you.

If you don't want to take risks then don't. Others do. Others understand the risk and calculate their chances and push the boundaries of what's possible when it's possible. Sometimes shit goes wrong, other times it doesn't. You know what we call risk, documentation, demonstration, and replication?

Progress.

Hand on heart, I've done 7 days, in a force 9, while crossing the Baltic Sea. It was one of two yacht races in very lucky to have competed in (the A.R.C being the other) as a deck hand. As we sailed out of Riga (Latvia), we heard (on the radio) other boats begging for help. Sea King helicopters scrambled and flying over us to (quite literally) save them. The storm was so bad, safety had to come first. So our skipper radioed the race organizers to imform.then we were now turning on the engine in a desperate bid to avoid the storm. On receipt of the information we were IMMEDIATELY disqualified from the raw as you must be purely under sail in the race. Please note, this all happened within (no more than) 2hrs o now (NOT racing, but)f setting sail for Travemünde, E.Germany.

Sorry to keep on. So my very first watch @ sea started @ 02:00am. What I witnessed, experienced and felt in those conditions is hard to put into words. What what I can tell you is this. Under the moon light, the waves looked like huge, black/dark grey granite hills. I'm not going to say mountains because I don't want to exaggerate, but those wave defiantly resembled hills. It is the first time ever (21 years old at time) I felt totally & utterly insignificant. But after that, I clipped my harnes on and just casually started my 4hrs on 4hrs off series of watches. I don't want to.come across as being dramatic, but I have deliberately used the words "casually started my 4hrs on 4hrs off series of watches" because at the age YOU never THINK about death. With the greatest of respect, that happens to other people, doesn't it???????? If you can't see what I'm eluding to, trust me, now I'm a little older & looking back at it all, I would never want to be in that position again. It's NOT, it's dangerous. As for the noise. The noise is absolutely phenomenal.

Don't want to.come across as being big headed, but what an experience.

I've bought my first sailboat 2 weeks ago. A small 22 foot. Never sailed a day in my life. Watched a lot of videos and got the basics from a sailing book. Went sailing for the first time yesterday with 20 knots wind, solo. Scared the shit out of me. Made a lot of mistakes. But learned a lot to. It was awesome.

Lord-Admiral Thor

@CrephcrafterLp Big problem with that. Experience does not equate to skill. They can teach you the ropes, but unless you are lucky and bag one that has several ocean crossings and been out there cruising come hell and high water, you ain't going to learn anything a good book and youtube vids can give you.

Only day sailors and coastal cruisers are where I am. The most adventurous guy I know sail only when the forecast predict good weather and within coastguard radio range. All I trust these guys to tell me are where shallows are and where the nasty sneaky ambush rocks hide. Not what to do when the waves breaks over the deck.

@Sailing Voyager in the Netherlands you dont need any kind of license to sail or motor a boat that's under 20 meters in length or cant go faster than 20 kmp/h. If i wave a dutch flag in international waters this law would still apply. As far as i know that's the same case in most country's in the world.

Wow. That was fairly terrifying. After having been in the Navy in my (much) younger days, and on one cruise on an Aircraft Carrier we crossed the Atlantic in between hurricanes during a very active hurricane year, I developed a healthy respect (fear) of the big water. That's why I live on a farm in the middle of Kansas now. 1,500 miles from the nearest ocean water. I'll experience the ocean from a very safe distance in videos like this.
I'm glad you enjoy this insane sport of open ocean sailing, and that you get enjoyment and fulfillment from it. I'll take my enjoyment from farming here in Kansas.. where there are no terrifying 30ft waves trying to kill you..
Thanks for this video - Enjoy!

roughest seas in my life was when i was in the navy, i think they were in the ball park of 40 feet waves in a ticonderoga class cruiser. I had the same feeling as you, it was the time of my life, and it was the most beautiful thing i've ever seen. when we were cresting a wave, you could see all the way to the horizon these massive, nearly uniform walls of water one after the next with the strong winds blowing spray off the tops. and how the ship rises and then plunges into the next wave, shuddering under the impact is a hell of an experience. was the best night of sleep i've ever gotten too :P
I miss it.

@Lars Hansen unsafe is also an absolute and being a professional can be dangerous as well.

Lars Hansen

@TigerDude333 You do realise that unsafe is relative to experience: What there can be unsafe for an amateur can be safe for the pro.

David Otness

Wait until you're helpless, physically and mechanically unable to do ANYTHING about your situation, you know only two things: you'll survive it or you won't. Period. I say this with over 55 years on the Bering Sea, Gulf of Alaska, and the Arctic Ocean. Nay, fear as awareness had better be your constant companion, a wariness and always being in the moment; even especially on calm, sunny days. Those beautiful days are when people tend to let their guard down, start spacing out, and the next thing you know you're staring from the water at your vessel sailing away from you. Or there's a fire up forward and you're in a tight spot with reefs, currents and no room for error. Having a through hull fitting snap off is another. I could go on and on, but don't want to bore anybody or hijack the story any more than I already have. Being clipped onto a safety line sailing alone is my first choice too. 50% of drowned people in Alaska were found with their pants unzipped, indicating they were taking a pee at the rail and forgot Rule # 1: one hand for the rigging, the other for aiming.
On my fishing boats I always told the crew to pee in the scuppers, or even on the deck if the weather was up at all.There are so many more things that can and do go wrong at sea, I lost so much of my family while young and many friends over the decades, I will never say I don't have fear. it's a measure of respect for the sea as an element much bigger and more heartlessly powerful than anywhere else on the planet. It's being on another planet.

Mastering your fear and working with and through it is the trick. Don't panic. It will turn out one way... or the other. Fight through "with all your strength of arm and heart and brain, and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again..." (Stan Rogers. If you don't know of his music, do find some on YouTube.)
I don't mean to sound like a know-it-all and I am not conceited, but I lived through many tight moments over the years where I didn't know if I was going to make it for hours, sometimes days, on end.
Thanks for the little slice of Norway, I wish I could return to my ancestral roots. Too damned old now.
Best to you in your further adventures and life in general.

You make me happy. I have a son in the US Coast Guard who is as much a daredevil as you and you guys even look alike. Kinda scary actually. So I feel like I’m watching my son. I taught my kid how to sail. Last time I sailed with him he was MY captain. The roles reversed as he became better than me. You are not really a daredevil. Instead you plot and plan and calculate and remove as many negative constraints as you can before casting the lines. You stretch your boundaries and find the boundary you once thought was impenetrable is now behind you! My son is the same. I used to worry about him. I don’t need to. I don’t worry about you either for same reason. When you are technically competent and resting the edge you are 100% in command of yourself except for that little bit of fear. I like how you spoke of fear in this flick. Nice job on this. Best video yet. I’d sail with you. That’s gonna be laughable to some that read this but I think you’ll understand that that is a supreme compliment even though I am merely a dwarf of a sailor compared to you.

armedmariner

Recently rented a J/80 out of MidBay Sailing in Destin FL area. Been a couple years I was accountable captain instead of being a first mate on my son’s 40’ in San Diego. It came back to me quick. What a great day on the water. Good 15 knot winds all day - steady. I reefed main and kept some jib rolled in. That boat could certainly be sailed with full sails on a day like that but I just wanted PEACE on the water. I also got a sun tan and a wind burn. I am forever reminded that sailing is pure awesomeness!!!

Learning how to live by needlessly putting you life in danger? It's foolish if you ask me, especially if one has a wife and children that love and cherish you and who would be emotionally devastated by your death. In fact, in such a case, it is pure selfishness. I dont know this fellow, maybe he does not have a family. It's academically interesting that one would have to intentionally risk one's life to "feel alive" don't you think?

Thank you for sharing your adventure in this amazing video! It brought back so many happy memories of sailing in heavy conditions like that.

Great videos Erik, I always enjoy your channel. Just a bit worried that people may try to copy what you’re doing in a forecasted force 10. Force 10 is an average wind speed of 48-55kts, at 10m above sea level. 45 gusting 55 on top of a radio mast isn’t a 10. The numbers you describe are between a force 8 and 9, and the wave height you describe (6m) exactly matches this. If someone goes out in a force 10 they are going to have a much nastier time...

Everyone else on YouTube does it too of course, converting the highest gust they see into a Beaufort number. I was hoping for less bs from you.

I hope all was well after the long cut when you show yourself unfurling the jib without any turns around the winch on the furling line. That can hurt! Take care out there!

Lars Hansen

The 10 meter wave hight is the average of the 1/3 height of the highest waves, AFAIK

Congrats on the successful voyage...I got caught in a large storm crossing a strait once, with the heavy incoming seas bearing at me broadside and lightning everywhere, I had to tack regularly to keep myself at a safe angle to the 8' high waves in my little 18' boat. Its the random rogue waves that make it scary...having to constantly watch all sides of the boat. When I finally got to about 2 miles offshore, everything calmed down. My brother and I didnt say a word for the whole 2 hour journey...we just looked at each other afterwards and said "holy $hit"! It was the white knuckle ride i will never forget.

David Paradis

@Paul Alston funny guy...I got caught in worse recently while 40 miles out...fortunately in a 34' this time...felt a bit easier, even though we porpoised the bow a few times

When I was 12 (1981) my father thought it would be a good idea to make a night passage to Cat Kay from Ft. Lauderdale without checking the weather after hours of drinking with his friends on his new sailboat. We got caught in a massive tropical depression waves 15-20ft high over the deck. Swells 40-50ft deep. The waves were so big I couldn't see the helm when they came over the bow. I was lashed into the companionway amidship (middle of the boat). We were sailing a 51' Skye ketch. My father brought his friend and experienced sailor Brian Etoff. Without Brian we would have died. A 46' sailboat 20 KM behind us lost 2 family members overboard. I have never seen or been near anything like that since. It was terrifying but gave me a standard to gauge all of my boating from for the rest of my life. I did love the experience regardless.

@RX120D Absolute utter rubbish, bud. Racing is a calculated risk. Sailing in bad weather is either bad luck (can happen), or just utter stupidity. In racing you can hit your brakes and stop the car if necessary. In sailing, when things get out of hand, there is no such thing. It is reckless and a piss poor, if not one of the worst examples for upcoming sailors. I am drawn to intense situations, and I spent half my life on and under the sea. Remember these words, if you ever attempt sailing yourself: "in bad weather, poor sailors are sailing and good sailors sit in the tavern and drink rum." Any experienced and responsible sailor will tell you that. Additionally: if you endanger yourself like that, you also risk the lives of those who will ultimately come to rescue you, if you'd manage to alert them. And you cross the Atlantic 100% in the good weather and never in the bad weather season. It's not different strokes for different blokes. It's just ppl with half a brain vs utter morons like this guy.

@104th IronMike Lots of people would say that racing cars is stupid and pursuing racing as a hobby is stupid. Does that mean that racing isn't worth doing? No.

Different strokes for different folks, my friend. Just because you don't feel drawn towards intense situations doesn't mean that it's stupid. Humanity moves forward one step at time. If everyone only sailed in fair weather, no one would have ever crossed the Atlantic, let alone circumnavigate the world.

No, he is an example why stupid people get encouraged to deliberately put their lives in danger. Yes, a storm is fun, but it is just stupid to seek one out. Like really piss poor seamenship. Any sailor with a brain will tell you that. :-P

I can't thank you enough for taking me on this voyage. For far too long, I have been existing inside my comfort zone bubble. But after watching this video, I have decided to get my ass up and out into my own stormy seas. Screw it, if it eats me then it can claim its own victory, but I'm going to be the hardest meal its ever encountered. Thank you Erik

Todd Kimbrell

@Kangaroo Kangaroo Hahaha! 10 points for style Kangaroo!! Be safe and good luck.

Same here. I bought a military grade life jacket. No boat.

Me and my jacket are going to show these waves what's what

Erik this is amazing! I experienced this very same storm and got a kick out of it from safe ground on the swedish coast. While standing there I actually thought of you wondering if you would be able to sail in these conditions :) Just awesome.

Years ago I took a Storm Hunters course out of Vancouver, B.C. Not even close to what you took on. Obviously, you have faith in your abilities. That's what most of us have to work on. True learning is by doing. Thank you so much for the video. Makes for some great dreams tonight hopefully.

Erik...just like Erik the Red?! My man, I envy you. You inspire me to..to..to watch more sea going videos. I spent 16 of my 25 years on U.S. Navy sea duty and I miss being at sea so much. If I could, I would return to sea (like Erik does here) in my later years.
Alle som kjende honom unnte honom vel!!

Google maps is amazing. I was able to "take a look around" where you traveled. I would love to visit, but that will likely have to be the next lifetime. That boat is beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

"If you're not anxious going out in this weather you're not normal"... my man, if you're purposefully going out in that weather period you're not normal :'D I sailed through a tiny autumn storm with my uncle and one wave was definitely 6 meters, my mouth went dry with raw terror. You've either got nerves of steel or the mentioned adrenaline addiction is clinical! Hats off to you Sir, I am in awe.

It's very important that Erik is happy!

Its good captainship to avoid storms if possible, but then again you never truly learn your boat and your skills if you dont deal with situations like these. Double edged sword. If I was him I'd wearing a survival suit and all the other gear for rescue.

@Sailing Citrine Sunset I think he was disparaging the person suggesting the sail requires a large amount of bravery, not the sailor in the video.

Though I'm not sure how the term "pussy" is disparaging or how it could be used to diminish one's apparent toughness. Pussies are far from weak or incapable. Balls on the other hand....

First time watching one of your videos and I have to tell you I'm hooked that was one great journey and a very professional attitude you made it look like a trip round the harbour great stuff

Great adventure! Although I would have liked to see his solutions on an upwind course. That would have been even a lot heavier.

Mr Putman

Epic film - The immense raw energy in those waves...wow. The colours, fantastic film, loved every moment of it.
Not much has changed between now and when the first explorers learned to sail hundreds of years ago... we are still totally at the mercy of the weather. Liked & Subscribed!

The Coast Guard absolutely detests this type of adrenaline seeking, which could lead to their own lives being in peril as a result. However, there is a tiny minority of humans that know what they are doing in these extreme circumstances. That's what we have here.

ADRIAN

That's what my parents told my as a boy.
"No sailing. Choose soccer or chess.
We don't want to look for you when you are drowning and put our lives at risk"

Tiberiu Nicolae

@Ken Hiett If Alex fell to his death, rescuers wouldn't be in danger. Now imagine the coastguard going out in that weather looking for this guy if things go wrong. I get it, it's an experience on another level, but it's not necessary to involve others in your folly.

DeusExWhatever

That’s life. You take risks you are willing to pay for. This is the human spirit on display and i’m glad some people still have the will to tempt fate. This is what got us where we are today and without people like this, we’d still be cowering in caves.

I love watching videos of life at sea during storms. I'm going on my first cruse in October, it will be my first time on the ocean and a part of me hopes that it goes through at least a mild storm. It would be amazing and terrifying.

JpHDev

THAT is not a storm. Tat is the aftermath of a storm with unsettled sea state. The wind is bugger all. Force 4 or 5. It is utter bullshit purely for youtube.

"Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours ?"

Gordon Lightfoot, Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

Friend of mine lived that line when he made his round the world attempt back in the 1980's . . . hard to beat surviving a pacific hurricane in a 12' self-built sailboat, and long before the days of GPS and cellular service too. I lived it too back in the 90's when I was nearly lost at sea during a freak storm and was rescued by the USCG (in my case it was just a coastal regatta). I dont miss almost dying, but I do miss those days. Ah, to be young and invincible again.

He passed away in 2017, at the age of 58. I remember him being a heavy smoker, so i'm guessing it was lung cancer. I hadnt seen him since he left on his voyage, and was sad to find the obit just now.

Derek Murphy

Fantastic video, super quality and editing, the adrenaline transcends from the small screen to the viewers that you experienced.

Tony Morgan

My adrenaline was pumping high just watching this video, it was like I was sailing with you! Unbelievable ...Amazing!! Great video!!!

Victor Romain

An awesome video! i spent many years working on the sea as a ship's cook on a large ferry. I know what it's like to be caught up in a storm force 12. And, that was on a ferry off several thousand tonnes, with stabilisers!

I love this, most amazing experience with the sea, the wind and mother nature. Best feeling in the world.

Michael Berkemer

Truly excellent video, thanks! I have a question for you: I have seen some of your footages are arial drone shots. How do you manage to retrieve your drone back onboard again with such strong winds, ...and then you are solo on top of that, right? I have been puzzling about this for sometime now, I would really appreciate some explanation as to how you manage that without injury, the loss or damage/destruction of your drone.

roy webster

This is an amazing video and allowed me to understand to art of sailing a little more.
I would be terrified on that boat🤣
I’m just glad I’m on land and don’t have to worry about drowning lol

Well I fully understand you. On my last day of my windsurfing vacation in fuerteventura there was force 8. The flying sand was like small needles hitting you in the feet. Everybody called it a day but i said , its my last day here i will give it a try. I sailed around an hour in force 8 and since then i became addicted. In fact i did not expect to be able to surf that day.... but i did! There is hardly anything more intense in the physical realm than going in your limit against the "elements". Its 100% addictive. Its good that you had a good plan and strategy, i enjoyed your video a lot, it was very vivid. Keep up and may God keep you safe.

lloyd evans

FUERTEVENTURA is epic!!! last time i rented a 3 meter sail, and was hahging on for dear life and had to come in !!!!!!

Tasos Fikos

@Ric o I think that its just a thrll, i dont take any serious risk. I am never further away than 400 metres from the shore. In the worst case I will break something. The waves will bring me back in a few minutes. But since this bloody plandemic all these are just distant memories. If I was not married, I would buy a boat and dissapear somewhere far away from all that bullshit....

Ric o

See? It’s an addiction, related to noradrenaline and blah (won’t enter the details). You risk your life for a thrill. Some meds and therapy will help you with your addiction. Heroine junkies feel so good just like you and yet they must abandon it for health’s sake. Why don’t you go BASE jumping or wingsuiting? It’s very dangerous and will be even more addictive.

Time to rename your channel to the insane sailor! I do think that was an amazing video and I love that you are willing to go out in these conditions, sailing alone, and filming it all the whole time. This is nothing short of spectacular!

Amazing! Loved watching this. Thank you!!

Chris Leo

Intense, beautiful, and well-produced. ...You can feel the moments, no? .....When Erik returns to his home port, I almost want, or expect, to see thousands lining the canal to recognize his courage, and his daring, and to cheer his safe return. ...His achievements are beyond what a footballer or movie star would experience so he should get more attention from the public than them! :) :)
...I know that life doesn't work that way, but it's fun to write such comments.

Erik, I'm always surprised that you don't hand steer more. IMHO one of the great pleasures of sailing is the interaction of the wind, waves, and helm/rudder. Autopilots sure have their place, but especially on a daysail like this I would have thought you'd get more out of it by being on the wheel. Thanks for making these videos.

Sjaak Klapperkaak

Thanks for the ride, that was a awesome experience 👊🏻

everytime i watch this video, i remember what my dream is and where i am belong: buying a sailboat and live on the sea, now i am saving and working hard for it. Thank you so much for this video, big respect :)

may I ask what model and length is your boat?

Thanks for the video Erik! I sail in Southern Tasmania where we have similar conditions. Down here in weather like that we use a harness and lifelines to clip the harness to when in the cockpit or moving forward, especially when sailing Bass Strait, which like your region, is full of tiny islands (skerries) in shallow waters with strong tidal currents making for short, steep waves up to 8 metres - Do Norwegians use life lines, life vests and personal epirbs in such conditons?

mongonius

Super cool! I was surprised that he didn’t have a safety harness and that he had the gangway hatch open. What an adventure!

Well done Laddie ....... and that’s from an affirmed land-lubber . I’ve fought two wars and lived in some strange places and extreme temperatures and many a time been in the middle of nowhere without any thought of help, but the most jelled-guts pure terrified I’ve ever been was on 5 occasions all upon inshore waters Scotland and Alaska waves of wind and big tide nightmares to this day. Super video and will subscribe many thanks.
