Hi all

I want to share with you a fantastic sail with S/Y NordVest in the North Sea this summer. NordVest (hull #072) was delivered in April, and this was our first real voyage after the delivery tour.

We started from Bergen, Norway in the beginning of July and set sail to Shetland and further to the fantastic island Fair Isle with puffins and many other exiting birds. Further on, over five weeks, 1200 nautical miles and many exiting experiences, to Orkney, the Hebrides, Scotland, Caledonian Canal, Inverness and then back to Norway.

The 505 have proved to be the the fantastic boat we hoped her to be, and we are looking forward to the next season.

The video offered to you is recorded between Inverness and the island of Utsira in Norway.

Best regards from Bjarne
