Sailing the Northwest Passage 2023: A Family's Adventure into the Arctic

Every now and again YouTube throws up an absolute gem. This is a diamond amongst the rough.

Seeing your children playing with the local arctic children was so cool!

Brilliant!! I love that the story was told in Dean's voice. What an adventure.

I am happy when children get a real adventure early in life. best wishes from Sweden

Excellent, so inspirational in many ways. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

I loved the narration, great video, thanks

Just completed the book 'Thicker Than Ice'. It joins the bookshelves with the classic sailing books of the last century alongside the Pennington's first wonderful book 'Orca'.

Magnificent video. Stunning visuals and charming, articulate narrator!

Love the narration!

Can only echo the praise of others for this wonderful and original film of your adventures. Thank you so much all of you. The narration was great too❤😊

Beautiful Story - Thanks for sharing ! Stay safe Pennington family 😊

I explored the NWP on google earth one evening on a whim. Now YouTube shows me these NWP passage makers. I had no idea there were so many choosing this route. There are almost no inhabited stations, supply or rescue sources. Like the middle of the ocean with land all around you. Awesome.

Outstanding! Well done! With respect, from start to finish. Safe sailing for the rest of your voyage. ❤

A truly wonderful family, film and fabulous narrator. Congratulations Pennigton family.

Wow!

An amazing boy being raised by amazing parents. He is absorbing information that has mostly been lost to Western Civilization, and it will make him grow into a thoughtful, direct human being. Humanity NEEDS this: an adventure watched over by realistic AND protective paents. He and others like him will change the world into what it needs to be.... may That Which Is Divine watch over and guide him.... he is needed in this world.

Viagem incrível de excelentes navegadores. Parabéns.

Extraordinary courage people!💜🪐

Go Dean! You guys are such legends, what an awe inspiring journey!

When I was a kid I lived in a place called Pennington. It was an unspoiled paradise on the South African Natal South cost and at the time, there was nothing there but indigenous bush and many dangerous animals. I had a Zulu friend called Nicolas who taught me how to thrive in that wonderful place. What an adventure for a young boy. It has changed an awful lot since then but it was a treasured experience and my childhood memories of this wild and beautiful place are indelibly imprinted on my brain. It was named after the adventurer who settled there. I wonder if you are related?
