Arved Fuchs: OCEAN CHANGE between the Arctic and Antarctic
Arved Fuchs is a famous German adventurer. He has travelled the world - especially the oceans - for more than 45 years and he does this in a very powerful way. He is the first person to reach the North Pole and the South Pole by foot within one year. He rounded Cape Horn in a folding boat and crossed Greenland with sledge dogs in 70 days. Most of his expeditions have taken place either in the Arctic or Antarctic or on board his 92-year-old fishing vessel DAGMAR AAEN. The footage of one of these expeditions just went viral on TikTok. In this podcast, Arved regularly shares his adventures on board Dagmar Aaen. www.arved-fuchs.de. www.baerbel-fening.de

Captain Arved: Storm Survival at Cape Farvel, Greenland
During his first major expedition with the DAGMAR AAEN, the ICESAIL expedition, Arved Fuchs got caught in a heavy storm at the southern tip of Greenland - at the notorious Cape Farvel - in 1993, with 10-force winds and huge waves whose crests broke over the Dagmar Aaen. This went on for hours. The seawater destroyed navigation instruments and charts. Arved Fuchs did not let this upset him - he stood at the helm and guided the Dagmar Aaen safely through the storm.
