  • THE VOYAGE - Bark Europa sails 10000 nautical miles from Ushuaia to Scheveningen
    In the first half of 2020, Bark Europa sailed nonstop from Argentina to the Netherlands amid the Covid-19 breakout and ongoing international restrictions and port lockdowns. This was the longest nonstop voyage she has ever done, over 10000 nautical miles, starting in Ushuaia in the southern tip of Argentina all the way to her home port, Scheveningen in the Netherlands. This video is a first-hand account of the life on board during this voyage. You can read more about this voyage on my website (richardsimko.com/blog/bark-eu...)
    Subtitles are available in English, Spanish, and Slovak.

    A daughter of a Merchant Sailor who never wanted his little girl to go to sea. At 54 I realise I have a dream to sail, to test myself and at the very least to TRY. Life gets in the way but after watching this I know my time will come, I know I will get my chance its just a matter of timing.
    This made me cry, it was humbling and the crew were simply amazing. The narration sent shivers down my spine as did the filming. I would say this video would give anyone who wants to go on a sailing adventure a pure, no cgi, no editing just an honest view of what you can expect. Well done to everyone.

      I cannot agree with you more I am only 20 but my entire life I’ve dreamed of sailing on a boat like this with a crew I can call family and just to see the distant sunrise coming over the horizon as we wake up on another day on the big ocean I just hope I get to see it one day that’s the only way I’ll feel accomplished in life and yet I’m watching this a year late it still warms my heart that there is hope that one day I will make my dream a reality

    The Voyage film- is for everyone! The Voyage itself is not. "People tell you where to go, they tell you where they've been- but till you get there yourself you never really know." - Joni Mitchell. Hard is the voyage with a crew who are divided or contrary. We may never know the full dynamics of this crew but what I see they were fantastic! An excellent peek through a keyhole into a great lifestyle as big as the Atlantic. Only in stepping through the door can one really know a rabbit hole or stairway to heaven.

    Dear Richard! A huge big thank for publishing this film from this very unique voyage. Honestly, this is my first ever long-range voyage "on" a tall ship (though I'm an experienced yacht racer. ) I've loved every moments of the film. What makes the film experience even higher is that I have had sharp memories of the fears and of thouse late-march days of 2020. We, landlocked people tried that time to get out of the scares of this sudden pandemy madness. When you set sail from Ushaia, e.g. parallel we concluded, so we would stop the continuous fear from the disease, and we had to do hiking tours to mother nature, just in order to leave the closedness behind us. Your voyage is more then rememberful and charming: bark Europa might have provided you with the safest little island on Earth. It is great to see the various moments of your onboard life, how excellently you could cooperate together. From seeing your film I was able to realize, why I loved sailing so much! Thank you and the entire crew for the experience I received with following your days. And special respect for taking thouse high seas so safely. Just seeing on screen how a big hull cuts the waves, is a breathtaking experience.
    I hope so all you are well nowadays, and I wish all the best, and -the mostly- fair winds to the crew and to you! The Voyage is a great film of your advanture!

Very courageous of all the sailors, and I am just so happy you all got back to your port safely !

    I followed every step of this epic journey online, and it's nice to see it on video as well. A great adventure in some ways, but it must have been hard for the crew who were expecting to fly home to their friends and families. A real testament to the dedication, skill and masterful seamanship of the Europa crew (and nice to see a few familiar faces too).
