Ships and Boats, Svalbard - 7 - Noorderlicht


The Noorderlicht under sail, we sailed when we could if the wind was strong enough and in the right direction, the smoothness of the passage due to running with the waves rather than across or against them, and lack of apparent wind as you are moving along with it some as a bit of a surprise if you are,'t used to sail power.
