Ousland : A call for an experienced sailor

Published on 16.09.2010 - The Northern Passage 2010

Few days ago, Borge Ousland has called for an experienced sailor who could join his shipmates for his upcoming crossing of the Atlantic Ocean.

Excerpts from the expedition's blog on 14 September :

Would you like to join the adventure? Wanted: Experienced sailor ready for adventure now !

Are you ready for a real challenge ? Would you like to join an exciting expedition ? The “Northern Passage” seeks an additional crew member for its upcoming crossing of the Atlantic Ocean. Experienced open-sea sailors of multi-hull boats are especially welcome to apply.

We expect to depart from Pond Inlet on Baffin Island, Canada, around 23 September. The best option is if you can join us for the entire three-week voyage to Oslo ! Alternatively the journey can be split into two stages, with embarking/disembarking either in Iceland or Southern Greenland. Your airfare will be covered by Northern Passage 2010 Expedition.

Interested ? Please contact Børge Ousland’s right-hand man, Lars Ebbesen: lars@ousland.no
