Show Notes

#195. Jon Amtrup is a Norwegian sailor who spends a large portion of his time above the Arctic Circle. In fact, when I spoke to him back in January at the Oslo Central Train Station, he had just returned from Tromso after a winter sailing expedition with a group of Russians who wanted to see the northern lights! So Jon's pretty hard-core to say the least. He's also an avid single-handed sailor, and is helping another Norwegian sailor put together a campaign for next year's Golden Globe Race. Jon & I spoke at length about his career and his & our future Arctic plans.
