One of the ambitions of One Ocean Expedition is to focus on sustainability, how to behave so our way of living does not destroy the planet.

So, it's not a coincidence that the expedition rides the wind around the globe.

This is why sailing is smart

Statsraad Lehmkuhl visited Lisbon September 2-5 2021.

Bjørn Olav Østeby (26) left Statsraad Lehmkuhl in Lisbon. Or, to be precise, wheeled - he brought his bike on board. For him the adventure is not over, Bjørn Olav is now cycling back to Norway.

Sailing south, cycling home

Sailing from Norway to Spain and Portugal in great summer weather has been an adventure. But the voyage is first and foremost an expedition to gather new data, gain new insights, and then share the new knowledge.

We are setting sail from Arendal, Norway on 20 August 2021. The One Ocean Expedition and it´s dedicated partners are monitoring the Covid-19 situation closely. In order to secure a safe expedition, our highly competent Security Committee is continuously conducting risk assessments and adjusting the plans according to the current situation and possible foreseen scenarios.



Risk assessments - Covid-19

For most of the sailors and researchers, beeing on a tall ship is a totally new experience. But not for 68-year-old Terje Karterud.

First night on deck

You do not know for sure if you will become seasick until you have sailed the open sea. The sailors took that test on the first day.

Finally - open sea

Arendal - where the adventure begins

Departure day is coming up! On 20 August, we set sail for the very first leg of the One Ocean Expedition! We hope to be escorted out of Arendal harbor by a large parade of local boats for the grand Sail Away-departure! The event will be broadcasted live on facebook. The first leg will take us to beutiful La Coruña in Spain. 

Sail away parade from Arendal! 

We anchored near La Coruna an hour ago. Great sailing - around 70% by sail.  Now it´s time for a swim and a social gathering on board. We wish you all a nice weekend! Here in La Coruna the sun is shining, and our trainees shine with it – that makes us really happy too.
With greetings,  Captain Jens Joachim Hiorth and crew
