Polar Plunge!
Last week we set sail upon the idyllic yet sub-zero waters of the Arctic Circle. This week, I’m taking things one step further… plunging into them!
Amongst phenomenal sailing, breathtaking glaciers and experiencing arctic wildlife, join Riles and the rest of the Noorderlicht crew as they watch me jump overboard & embrace my first POLAR PLUNGE!
At -1.8 degrees celsius it’s fair to say it was a once in a lifetime experience...
We hope you guys enjoy this fourth instalment of our five part Arctic Series! We’re stoked to be releasing this episode as an early [ad free] preview for you all.
As always, thank you for your support.
Love,
Elay, Riley, Lenny & Darwin

Well done Elayna, amazing! In Russia when rivers and lakes froze in winter often you can buy memberships to dip holes that they dig and add stairs and changing rooms next to for a safe way of going for a plunge!
As always , smiles on my face through the whole video sharing your excitement and joy
Loved this episode. Would love to do that one day.
What a fabulous vacation for you all. Elayna, you are an extraordinary woman.
This episode was insanely fun to watch! We could actually feel your emotions of joy. Elayna, Kudos to you! You guys certainly have a pair of "cojones"!!
Can’t get enough. Loved every bit.
best outro ever!! LOL
Happy Thanksgiving 😊 to yall....from one of your weird American patrons.
OMG, some seriously funny stuff in this. I love how Elayna professes her hate for Riley just before the plunge, reminiscent of things said during child birth. So glad it was a positive experience for Elayna, she was really stoked after it.
The scenery. The Kids Table. The Polar Plunge and Glacier! Great movie. Well deserved holiday. ⛵😊
Wonderful episode --Riley why didn't you do a polar plunge as well? Lennie seems to be enjoying himself.
Amazing episode! Really enjoyed watching it, thanks for sharing 😊
This was an absolutely wonderful episode. So much fun. The music was perfect and the editing grand, as usual.
Just your guys’ pure joy radiates from the tube. You look so happy. Watching you both fall in love with each other again is so beautiful. The “I love this crazy bitch” 😂 my fav line. What a joy to see
One of these days...
Gotta give Elayna an "atta-girl" on the Polar Plunge! that's got to rev your heartbeat! But Riley, you stayed the longest in the icey bathtub, I expected you to try it for sure. But the moment just before SHE jumped not totally knowing what to expect would have been the worst! I 'm with the 80 year old...I'm not jumping in that mess!
Shot Elayna for jumping into that ice cold water! Yew!
I jumped into the English Channel off Torquay when I was young, and that was good enough for me! It was SO cold! I can’t imagine what you just did, Elayna! I am incredibly impressed!
My god that was a fun episode! So glad to be there with you. Kudos on the plunge…. FLIP no less! Yes, I do hear the cold plunges are very invigorating and kind of mind altering for a short time. Kid those adorable kids for me.
Did I hear Elayna say they were editing videos from Asia now? A hint you will be picking up the Trimaran soon? Or was I just hearing things I wanted to hear? LOL
I really enjoyed that one the most of the four so far. I think because you are both so open so it feels more like we’re there with you.
At the risk of seeming over cautious . . . no doubt the ship's Captain has sought the advice of Coast Guards or Firemen, but ensuring the safety of his/her passenger plunging in ice-cold water (backwards) by means of a rope tied around the diver's waist needs to me in need of further validation - if you slow motion Elayna's (graceful) flight in mid-air, with her back facing the water, you will notice that the rope's circle, having a diameter greater than Elayna's slender waist, is no longer in contact with said waist . . . it's as if Elayna is plunging backwards, through a hoop made of a rope . . . upon entering the water, the rope will inevitably slide up along the diver's body and unless it's stopped (brusquely) by the diver's contours (graceful), will allow the diver's body to slide right through the loop . . . reducing the diameter of the loop may be even be more suspect, as you pull on the rope to bring the diver back to the surface, the diver may find herself with her head upside down. OK, I understand that Elayna is an accomplished athlete and used to underwater swimming . . . If I was the Noordenlight Captain, I would never allow my passengers to perform this stunt.
So brave Elayna! Love all your pronunciations Riley! This was a fun one! Thank you!!!
One of your best documentaries ever! Loving this trip, even if I do feel cold just watching!
Amazing video . . . Scandinavians plunge into ice-cold water . . . but that's after being cooked in a sauna and being numbed from pain by having absorbed a number of Vodkas. Hats off to Elayna for having conquered her fears and smiled all the way through . . . what a lady! Looking to virtually journeying with you in warmer locations!
Amazing place, amazing adventure! I think Elayna was glowing after her dip!
Great episode! Glacier, brazier. Now try furling topsails aloft during a gale when they blow out and learn the reason for a good tight flake and furl. Dreaming of pho.....
Elayna is a MILF lets be real
what a great example of " FACE YOUR FEAR AND DO IT ANYWAY "
Loving this series. Larry's a G 🤣
Ms Glacia......Glassier ;-)
Glacier!!
So when Elay saw Walrus and said this is the biggest thing I've ever seen, did Riley's libido permanently sunk to arctic polar temperatures? Sorry, could not help myself with that one. Hahahahaha
Hate to admit, but that came to my warped mind too
This was another amazing episode! Congrats Elayna on your plunge! Why didn’t Riley do it too?
Gah! 🥶
I love it when you two laugh together, It makes me laugh too! and well done Elaya on the pola plunge
Just had a great laugh at the bit where you two laugh at Elayna passing Larry: “You’re up…. 😂
Great video. Well done Elayna
So brave Elayna! Fantastic video, and amazing sail❤️❤️❤️
Taking this as a sign to jump in the Puget Sound on my birthday! Great video.
Ooh you want a glacier, suit you sir! :) I'm from England living in the US as they like to pronounce it with Ace but we like the finer things :)
