June 2014 Greetings to all sea gypsies out there Its been a busy month up at the farm. The potatoes are slowly coming up. the bees are out flying and we even got ourselves some more queens this year, but best of all, the weather has been really good. Days and days of sun, which is more you can ask for so far north. We are also working hard on the boat to finish up and go south this year. The plating is finished, which was more or less a 2-3 months work. Next one is installing all electric stuff and continue gettting the engine in. Getting the rigging in also have high priority now. As mentioned earlier our plan is to set sail for West Indies/Cuba at the end of this year helping wwoofing/organic communities around the world. So if you have skills in organic farming and love travel with zero carbon footprint, please contact us. We still have space up on the farm until the boat is finished so if you have farming or boatbuilding skills you think might be useful please contact us. Love from Sailing the Farm A sea gypsy tribe of tomorrow. Pics from last weeks of work. Pictures: a. Here is the sizes for the sails. If you have some spare sail laying around we can modify to fit then we would love to hear from you. b. Wall.. Sorry, bulkheads are coming up c. Machining some drainage to the bathroom. d.

July 2014 Greetings to all our fans, helpers and sea gypsies out there. July 2014 has been as busy as we expected. We have had people from all over the world to come help us with running the boat project forward and plant and weed on the fields to get us self-sufficient in future. We are still some way to go but we are getting there. On the boat side the biggest thing is that all the inner plating and insulation are all finished up, the bathroom (wet-room) is plated and all watertanks are welded into position. Next big thing is to get the engine into the boat. We have to lift it up 3 meters and then 2 meters sideways. Its a little messy but we are working on this right now. Weight of the engine is around 500 kg so we need a hoist-system. The volunteers took some days off to hitch-hike to the west coast, and came happily back home with pictures of fiords, and camping outside in the mountains close to the glaciers. The summer has been extremely warm one so contrary to what i was thinking that they will almost freeze to death they got back to the farm sun-burned with a happy smile on their faces. During next weeks we will be harvesting what we have been planting this year and we will work on the engine and rigging, so if you have any skills you might think be useful please feel free to contact us. We also looking for crew for sailing across the atlantic, heading towards Cuba when the boat is finished so if you find that fancy please contact us. Love from Sailing the Farm A sea gypsy tribe of tomorrow. Pics from last weeks of work. Pictures: a. volunteers are hitch-hiking to the westcoast. hippie-factor running high maybe? b. fixing up the aluminium canoe for weekend canoing in the lake. c english lady working on the hatch and water tanks. d. painting up the bulkheads. all in white. a: http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=801471&stc=1&d=1407650159 b: http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=801481&stc=1&d=1407650162 c: http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=801491&stc=1&d=1407650163 d: http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=801501&stc=1&d=1407650165 |

August/September 2014 Greetings to all our fans, helpers and sea gypsies out there. The autumn is here and with that comes harvest on sailing the farm. We got lots of raspberries this year which is partly stored in the freezer and partly as jam. Then some hundred jars of raspberry-honey from the bees and in the end we harvested the potatoes, so in sum: Yes we are partly selfsufficient, but it might be a little boring eating baked potatoes with raspberries and honey every day during the winter. :-) But we are slowly getting there... We are also getting closer with the boat project. All stuff made of fabric is finished, electricity (both AC and DC) is installed. There is still some more work to do on the engine before its ready to go into the boat (basically split and rebuilt that iron beast) Then there is some deck work left, and then the last step is tearing down the temporary boatshed to get ship the boat down to the sea. So still lots of work to do but its going forward. We wish you all a happy autumn whereever you are. Love from Sailing the Farm A sea gypsy tribe of tomorrow. Pics from last weeks of work.

太棒了,多么美妙的、真正的公社精神! 这种精神也许在中国存在过,但已经逝去很久了。 为了一个梦想,忘记金钱,忘记世俗,忘记一切。 每个人只想贡献自己的一部分,参与到项目里面来,即使一些人不能参加航行。 希望这艘漂亮的帆船可以永远航行在地球之上,带着所有参与者的梦想! 让一件很酷的梦想成为现实,这本身就很酷。 真希望有机会参与到这个梦想中来。 |

Newsletter March 2015. . Dear Sea Gypsies, First, apology for delayed newsletter. The winter has been a busy one and it hasn't been that much time to keep up with the Newsletter, but we must say we are superhappy to get so many postcards and hear from all of you volunteers who have been here..... To be Norway its been quite a mild winter, the good thing is that heating has been running minside the boat whole winter so we have hardly felt the cold outside - a good test to see if our heating system inside the boat is ready to stand up for sailing in Antarctica. The sun is starting to heat up the farm and us slowly, the last week we really can feel the spring is coming. Our chicken is happy outside during daytime and seems to enjoy the sun as much as we do. Our metal working skills and diesel engine skills (mostly lack of) has been put to a test. We are more or less been busy doing brainsurgery on our 500 kg spare diesel engine to check how it looks inside and learning how those are working. Those parts we think will stop working will be brought onboard, (spare waterpumps, piston rings, gaskets etc) It gives a good feeling to know how that machine is working and even if we are a sailors, one day we will be happy to be pushed up the Amazon river or other places with the help of that engine . The one we will use seems to seems to be ok (we have been testing diesel injectors, compressions etc on the farm) The good thing bringing such test-equipment means we can help other volunteer-farms whith diesel engine problems... Rigging the boat is also on the list, since we make mostly everything ourselves we will make our own woodblocks for the rig. Its a classical gaff-rig with around 105 m2 sails which will be our main propulsion. It will be quite interesting when we are doing the sea trail to see if its well balanced.. hopefully our calculation is correct and it wont sail upside down or backwards as someone is thinking.... If you want to join us sailing around the world or helping up on the farm please dont hesitate to contact us. Here are some pictures from last months pluss a nice ones from last summer/autumn which shows how real Norway looks like. (that is the westcoast) Lastly we wish you all a happy spring. Love from sailing the farm A seagypsy tribe of tomorrow. Pictures. a: The woofers hiking to troll-tunga summer 2014 (westcoast norway) b: Our engine. (sabb 2j) There is a video of it running on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2fXI1TQcsU c: chickens on they way out to enjoy the spring sun. And plenty more pictures for the last years can be found here. https://instagram.com/sailingthefarm/ http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1032581&stc=1&d=1425815579 http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1032591&stc=1&d=1425815591 http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1032601&stc=1&d=1425815599 |

Dear old and new volunteers, There are lots of very exciting things happening at Sailing the Farm right now. We are happy to report that after many long and character-building years of boat-building, we're well on our way to sailing later this year. Here's an overview of what's been happening up here lately: - Our aluminum Colin Archer sailboat is taking shape. She is starting to look like a boat, and a good looking boat at that. She is as yet unnamed and suggestions that we call her The Unsinkable have fallen on deaf ears (to the disappointment of our Irish volunteer). Any and all naming suggestions welcome! - We have begun to machine sheaves for the boat. Our red sails arrive soon so it's all go, go, go in the workshop these days. - The heads is progressing quickly and soon it will be possible to take a shower on board. Our Belgian volunteer has fashioned fancy toothbrush holders for all future sea gypsies. - Last week we cut open a section of the boat shed so that we can move the engine on board. This will be a huge milestone for the project. - In April, we had our first official government visit. We are happy to report that she passed with flying colours. - Our volunteers have started watching movies on deck every Thursday night. Their 'Movies on Board' programme is limited to sailing movies (of course). They've watched '180 degrees south' and 'All is Lost' so far. Both come stamped with The Sailing the Farm seal of approval. If you've any sailing movie recommendations, please send them on to us! - Some of our current volunteers/gluttons for punishment are training for the Lillehammer half-marathon in June. At the moment they are getting up at 6:30 to run in the woods before tucking into a breakfast of hearty porridge and a day of boat-building. Some even manage to fit in a spot of meditation before breakfast. - The snow has thawed and we have started to turn the potato field. Our bathroom has been transformed into a temporary nursery while we wait to start planting. Our very versatile bathroom is also home to seven chirpy baby chickens! Our long-serving captain's To-Do-List is diminishing every week, but there's a lot of hard work still to do. We'd love to welcome more volunteers (old and new) this summer. A can-do attitude and lots of enthusiasm are the only skills we require (though more specific skills are very welcome also). So if you are free and can commit to a month, please get in contact with us ASAP so that we can book you in to help. There will be a launch party in Oslo later on this year when she takes to the water. Watch this space! Love, Sailing the Farm. p.s. Now that we're almost there with this boat, we're starting to think about the next stage of the project (we plan to find a farm base away from the Polar winds – somewhere sunnier and closer to the sea where we can build more boats). We are on the lookout for funding ideas and inspiration so if you have any suggestions or experience in this area, please let us know - no ideas too small or crazy (building a boat with volunteers is crazy already!).

Sailing the Farm late september 2015 Hi everyone! Another productive month and our boat hopefully soon to be in water. Farm news: The bee-seeason is finished for this year, each hive have got around 20 kg, so now they are ready to have their well-deserved winter holiday for next 7 months. The potatoes is still in the soil, but we will harvest them pretty soon. Boat News. Still some days delays with the shipment of the boat to Oslo. The engine is ready to start soon. we just need a little work with the dry exhaust. Else it looks really good. All welding work outside the hull is finished. We will paint the underwater part of the boat with expoxy primer this week. Then start to tear down the boatshed. Soon our metal-lady will see the sun for the first time. We still look for potential crew for the first leg of sailing, especially if you have good knowledge of gaff-rig adjustment and sailing, we would love to hear from you. Also look for some last minute volunters to help clean up the farm for the winter. Please contact us if you have some spare time in october. Pictures of the month: a: Flagmaking lady working on even more guestflags. Still a little work until we have them all. b: engine is in and wired up. Just need some work on the exhaust part before its ready to push us up Amazon river and beyond. c: welding lady at work. d: making wooden box for binocular. e: welding up the locking mechanism of the main-hatch http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1230631&stc=1&d=1443888308 http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1230641&stc=1&d=1443888317 http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1230651&stc=1&d=1443888325 http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1230661&stc=1&d=1443888334 http://weldingweb.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1230671&stc=1&d=1443888343 Love from Sailing the farm |
