    Two architects re-purposing a 100 person marine survival lifeboat; Stødig, into a self sufficient expedition home to travel 3500km from the UK to the Norwegian Arctic in 2019.
    Architects Guylee Simmonds and David Schnabel bought a marine survival lifeboat in February 2018 and after a year long conversion are on their way to Norway. Along with Shackleton, Guylee's dog, they are travelling from the UK to Tromsø, far north in the Norwegian Fjords. Situated north, Tromsø is the largest city in the Arctic Circle and having arrived, the lifeboat will spend the winter there, making smaller coastal excursions. The aim of this expedition is to explore this wild and isolated landscape, demonstrate the ability of design innovation to facilitate self sufficiency in such extreme environments and to document and share the adventure through photography and film.
    The voyage began in May 2019, departing the southern British port of Newhaven. The route skirted the Belgian and Dutch coast, passing the Kiel canal in Germany into the Baltic. Passing up the Danish then Swedish coast past Copenhagen and Gothenburg, before crossing the Skagerrak south of the lower tip of Norway up to Bergen. The lifeboat followed the route of the famous Hurtigruten ferry, passed up the fjords and ended in Tromsø.
    Sunflare is honored and inspired to be a part of the Stødig expedition.

    And you can pig back, this little boat on a bigger ship to a far away starting point and heading back to your home port. Great Idea!

    Not much utility in a stove without gimble in such a wobbly craft! Apart from that I quite like the idea.

    Does the boat still can do it through rough weather and can it still make a 360° rotation if catched by a wave. Or did you modify it in a way that the door is no longer a watertight door etc.

    Супер!, жаль дальность скорей всего небольшая из за запасов топлива.

    How do they keep the transparents fog free is what I would like to know, of all the life boat conversions this one looks the most luxurious because of the windows removing all that weight on the upper structure probably got rid of rollover tendency

    Thanks. Are there preferred brands and models of Lifeboats that are more suitable for conversion to a blue water sailboat?

    I wonder about how she rolls? I'm used to the easier motion of sailboats. I'd be tempted to rig a short mast and get set up for using paravanes.

    This is absolutely amazing. I have been looking at doing this very thing and came across this video when looking for a good lifeboat to buy. The way this conversation has been done is simply amazing.

    Is this vessel capable of crossing oceans on its own? with all the modifications have the self-righting capabilities still work? thanks

    Actually very disappointing! Other than LOA and beam, details of the boat are maddeningly few. Draft, propulsion, fuel, water, and waste capacity...there’s a myriad of details that would have made an interesting video fascinating.

      Hi The best place to get the build-details are on the site of the architects who actually repurposed the boat. artic-lifeboat.com. We are the solar panel manufacturers and this video was produced to celebrate the ingenuity and inspire others.
