SY Touche Route: https://forecast.predictwind.com/tracking/display/Touche/?
Sailors and adventurers Judy, from Denmark, and Håkon Jacobsen, from Norway, share their extraordinary journey aboard their 2002 Island Packet 380 yacht, Touché, as they navigate the icy waters of Svalbard and the wild expanses of Patagonia. Their love for adventure and sailing brought them together on a serendipitous boat trip and eventually led them to relocate to Denmark. Listeners will be transported through their vivid tales of Arctic exploration, where they ventured 80 degrees north thanks to the Gulf Stream, facing the daunting North Sea and experiencing the phenomenon of continuous daylight.
Join us in uncovering the meticulous preparations for such bold voyages, including how they adapted their yacht with a heater and a cockpit enclosure to brave the cold, and hear an amusing anecdote about using a simple stick to navigate icy waters. Judy and Håkon's stories reveal the challenges and rewards of Arctic sailing, including dramatic interactions with coast guards and their inventive remedies for seasickness. The couple’s adventures take them from the political intricacies of the Falkland Islands to the vibrant cultures of the Caribbean and South America, painting a picture of endurance and adaptability in the face of extreme conditions.
Embark on a thrilling ride as we explore the couple's captivating experiences in some of the world's most remote destinations, from the beauty of Cape Horn to the treacherous Drake Passage. Judy and Håkon's insights offer a glimpse into the rich landscapes and cultures they encountered, from anchoring safely in Rio de Janeiro to navigating the historical waters of the Galapagos. Their tales of exploration, combined with their passion for sailing and a cautious respect for the elements, highlight a unique spirit of adventure that will inspire every listener to embrace the unknown.
