Episode Synopsis

During his first major expedition with the DAGMAR AAEN, the ICESAIL expedition, Arved Fuchs got caught in a heavy storm at the southern tip of Greenland - at the notorious Cape Farvel - in 1993, with 10-force winds and huge waves whose crests broke over the Dagmar Aaen. This went on for hours. The seawater destroyed navigation instruments and charts. Arved Fuchs did not let this upset him - he stood at the helm and guided the Dagmar Aaen safely through the storm.www.arved-fuchs.dewww.baerbel-fening.deSupport the show www.arved-fuchs.de Facebook Instagram YouTube TikTok www.baerbel-fening.de
