Cruising to Arctic Norway, by Howard Steen

For the last three seasons CA log competition winner, Howard Steen, has cruised in his UK registered Vancouver 27, ‘Martha Maria’ on the Norwegian coast, wintering afloat in the Hardanger fjord and in Arctic Norway (Tromso) and using the boat as a base for ski-mountaineering activities.

His talk will cover different aspects of cruising in Norway up into and around the Arctic area including regions of special interest like the Lofotens, considerations & practicalities for wintering afloat as well as route planning, navigation and logistics for crew changes. 

The talk will be illustrated with photos, charts and some of Howard’s sketches and paintings.
