On Midsummer’s Eve, Børge Ousland and Thorleif Thorleifsson plan to sail from Oslo, in a daring attempt to sail through both the Northwest and Northeast passages during one and the same season. As soon as they have rounded the southern coast of Norway, they will chart a northerly course. This, of course, will merely be a prologue to the challenges that await them. Can their trimaran survive the challenge of ice-filled Arctic waters?
The months to come will surely be exciting! We’ll be bringing you daily reports and photos from the expedition.
