Janne Larsson // 'Brave or Stupid', Circumnavigator
On the Wind Sailing - A podcast by 59º North Sailing Podcasts
Categories:
#125. is Janne Larsson, Swedish electrician cum-circumnavigator. This is another episode I recorded at Hallberg-Rassy’s Oppna Varv in August. Big thanks to podcast fan – and now guest of the show! – Nuno Antunes for introducing me to Janne. Janne is another dreamer, and another example of how to make dreams turn into reality. An electrician living in Helsingborg on Sweden’s southwest coast, Janne and a friend Karl made a handshake agreement one day after a wine-filled evening the night before, and agreed they’d set off together and sail around the world. Nevermind that neither of them had ever sailed before. That was just a detail. The book 'Brave or Stupid' was born. Thanks to Sailrite for sponsoring this episode! Come ocean sailing with Andy & Mia on their Swan 48 'Isbjorn'. To view the passage calendar, visit 59-north.com/offshore.
