- This is videos I have recorded with my telephone while sailing offshore 150 days with Exlex year 2020 and 2021. It is Andreas who lives in Stockholm who has put the pieces together.
Therefore there is no order.
In fact the the videos on Fastnet Rock was recorded when approaching Baltimore, my last day of sailing Exlex. He also included the two rollovertests from an early video.
If you like the videos I can take some more next sailing. Hopefully this CZcamschannel will give me enough donations to continue to build, sail and do more videos.

Lol the jellyfish swimming by in the rollover test is awesome
Great to see some action footage on the boats 👍
Glad that you like it. More sailing when the present boat is done.
“peaceful and quiet just like I want it” because of your calm personality I believe you’ll live until you’re 150.
I can't imagine a world without Yrvind's!
Great video rind
Boat goes great
Love the sound of the wind in the sails
Finally found you. Sven you're an absolute legendary inspiration! Safe travels 🏴☠️
Great video!! -- I love your "normal" daily boat-building recordings, but this was a great reminder to us all that you are actually going to sail it someday. I have been wondering what your journey actually looked like in such a compact boat. 'Looks really great. Sails look safer to me than huge ones I am used to seeing. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks for sharing. Thumbs up
Two Sven Yrvind videos in one day. That was amazing Sven. The views off the bow of Exlex were fantastic. They were as close to the surface of the water as you can get with out being in the water. Thank you very much. Would certainly enjoy more videos like this. Have a good week.
His boats are submarines with sails .
A canoe yawl, it looks like a sub safely riding through the waves - just like it was built for them! 😮 😊Exlex ❤ Sven Yrvind, translation, extraordinaire
Sails arnt big enough
Nice 👍 I can't wait to see the new one finished 👍
Incredible. Living a dream. You’re an inspiration.
So happy to se your project is finished and you started sailing again. All the best!
Wonderfull, very nice to see the Exlex sailing videos!
This was a great video! Thanks!
It got me thinking about a deck camera, like a back-up camera or dash cam in a car. That way you could see what's going on topside, without opening the hatch. Or take deck and sea-state videos from the comfort of the warm and dry cabin.
Awesome Yrvind, she rides the swell so well, an amazing vessel, really great to see. All the best regards from here on the West Coast side of Australia 🌏🖖🙏🤟🇦🇺 Batavia Coast
The sails must be very efficient for their size. Wonderful adventure!
Keep posting more sailing videos Sven!
These clips are really telling the truth of both your experiences and your dreams of how to sail the long distances. Thnx a lot for showing your old footage my friend 🙏🏽
The sailing video selfies at sea are great - they really give a sense of what you're accomplishing here. Cheers to you, friend
Great video, thanks 👍
Great assembly of video with one new to me. Big jellyfish going by in possible the Bay of Biscay if I understood not in English.
Super awesome and so inspiring
Inspiration ❤
What a legend!!!
Sending well wishes and appreciation from southern California. Looking forward to seeing more!
Thank you! You arę amazing!!!
Thank You for the Interesting Video Sven, Best Regards!
Love this story.
What a legend!
Nice work 👏🏻
Great video Sven keep up the good work 👏🏽 hi from Umeå norrland ...
Ha! Would be entertaining to see the interior shot when your boat decided to make a full 360 rotation.
Jättebra video Sven 👏🏽 hej från Umeå norrland...
Yellow submarine😁
Swen was born for the real waterworld...
I knew David Letterman would take up new hobbies.
Thanks for sharing that was great! It answers some questions and brings up many more. Do you use sheet to tiller self steering or just steer by hand and drift when tired or will she steer herself down wind?
No sheet to tiller.
The tiller is looked rigidly.
Course stability is done by balancing the sail forces.
Takes some time to learn.
But nothing to go wrong.
The simplest system.
Using it since 1969 with 2 exceptions.
Sven your a inspiration to this “young” 50 something! I love small boats and love proving the you need at least 40’ crappy made-unseaworthy $$$ sailors wrong. Currently plying the Great lakes in my 17’ er which I plan on sailing Massachusetts to Ireland in 25’ after more sea trials.
Your design as I have read was inspired by Matt Lydon of Enigma/Pardox fame both those chine-keel boats sport amazing self-righting capabilities. I bought the Paradox plans but will look for a ready to sail one as I have no time to build.
Are plans for your boat available?
Paradox is good but Enigma a later design have a better a more seaworthy hull shape if you can scale her up.
The hatches of Paradox will let in water in a capsize.
On an ocean passage I like to have a more sturdy boat but that of course will make her more heavy.
The roll over test videos make me so nervous just watching.
I very much enjoyed seeing this offshore sailing. Do you find that big waves obstruct the wind's force on the sails? Does the boat keep its direction if or when that happens?
I do not think that big waves obstruct the wind.
But there is more wind higher up.
A boats stability is much smaller at the top of the wave often only 50% due to the fact that the wave particles orbital movement creates an centrifugal force always normal to the surface.
At the top of the wave stability is more at the bottom stability is stronger.
A cosequence is that the boat heals at the top of the wave. That is due to the centrifugal force not a stronger wind there.
😁🤘
Should have tried with the weight of provisions
Translation for the part in Swedish:
Hello. Yesterday it was dead calm. Today the wind is back. I think it's the 26th of june, 2021. Everything goes well. I'm having a good time. Now the wind is from behind. I'm drawin on the (next) boat, as usual, thinking about how it will be. And I'm reading french books. It's good. Here are the sails, and the boat. Let's see if I can extend this (selfie) stick a bit. This is what's going on at sea. I'm sleeping during the nights. I have an alarm going off every hour. I look at the AIS, to see if there are any ships around. It's quite good here. Hardly any ships. It's nice and calm, just as I want it. At 12:00 (noon) I have the meal of the day.
Do you have any internal ballast?
First boat had some lead, secound none.
You're like a prisoner who keeps trying to escape but is always brought back...
I kinda get what your saying but I think 99% of us watching this are prisoners to modern life. Sven has lived a life unchained.
Thanks! I see your passion and it is awesome. You build a canoe, and you can reach the antipode in a few month that thought give the mindset freedom. And I just love it!!! 🥸
Lol the jellyfish swimming by in the rollover test is awesome
Took many trials before we got that one right - just kidding.
