Transatlantic Advice???

Hello all,

I am sailing a boat from Sweden to Greenland Nuuk via. Scotland and Iceland to reach the Northwest passage. I am in the process of trying to locate a good weather router who is knows the area for the Sweden-Scotland-Iceland-Greenland bit. We have one for the NWP. Any suggestions?

If your interested check out our website and check out the coldest voyage!

Northwest passage on a shoestring

Thanks !!!!

Take a look at Introduction to the junk-rigged Corribee Mingming for Roger Taylors trip from England to West Coast of Greenland.

i was in nuuk in 1985 , but we sailed via newfoundland. you can get diesel & propane. the danish crown stores had plenty of groceries, etc. they also have diesel repair and machine shops. you need plenty of warm clothes at sea in july . there will be small ice chunks in the harbor and plenty of icebergs at sea. greenland command required us to report in every day or they would send out a search helicopter and charge you $10'000. i don't know how it is now.
