«Jeg var med p\u00e5 Tall Ships Races for f\u00f8rste gang i 2015. Jeg var bare 13 \u00e5r, og visste lite om hva jeg gikk til. Men jeg meldte meg p\u00e5 fordi s\u00f8stera mi var med i 2014, og fikk en unik opplevelse. Jeg meldte meg s\u00e5 p\u00e5 igjen i 2018, rett og slett fordi jeg ogs\u00e5 hadde en unik opplevelse i 2015. Opplevelsen, minnene og mestringsf\u00f8lelsen jeg satt igjen med etterp\u00e5, var helt spesiell, og derfor meldte jeg meg p\u00e5 igjen i 2018.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n

«I participated in my first Tall Ships Race in 2015. I was only 13 years old, and little did I know what was waiting for me. I signed up for it because my sister joined in 2014, and she had an unique experience. I signed up again for the races in 2018, simply because I had an unique experience in 2015 as well. The experience, memories, and the sense of achievement I got from it, was indeed special, and that is why I signed up again in the first place.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n«Lindesnes kommune delte ut fem plasser, for de hadde arrangement p\u00e5 B\u00e5ly. Jeg tenkte hvorfor ikke, og en annen i Jeger og fisk mente at folk m\u00e5tte melde seg p\u00e5!»<\/p>\n\n\n\n
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n\n\n\n
«The municipality of Lindesnes had five available spots, since they had an event on B\u00e5ly. I was thinking «why not?» and another guy I knew told people to sign up for it!»<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hva likte du best med The Tall Ships Races, og hvorfor? \/ What did you like the most about The Tall Ships Races and why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n«Det jeg likte best: \u00c5 f\u00e5 v\u00e6re med p\u00e5 en seilb\u00e5t, men ogs\u00e5 \u00e5 f\u00e5 se plasser som Esbjerg og Nesv\u00e5g. Fyrverkeriet i Esbjerg, og b\u00e5ttutinga i Esbjerg og Stavanger var bra, samt at Lindesnes Trekkspillklubb fikk opptre i Stavanger.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n\n\n\n
«What I liked the most: To be on a ship, but also to experience new places like Esbjerg and Nesv\u00e5g. The fireworks in Esbjerg and when the ships honked all the horns in Stavanger was good, and also that Lindesnes Accordion Club got to perform in Stavanger.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n«Det \u00e5 bli kjent med alle folkene, f\u00e5 vennskap som man har livet ut. Det at man m\u00e5tte jobbe og var et team, det syntes jeg var g\u00f8y!»<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hva var det kjekkeste ombord, og hva var det mest utfordrende?\/ What was the most fun thing on board, and what was the most challenging?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n«Det jeg likte best med The Tall Ships Races var det sosiale. En blir veldig godt kjent med hverandre. Alle lever oppi hverandre i en uke, der du deltar p\u00e5 vakter og utf\u00f8rer arbeidsoppgaver i lag, og kortspill ut i de lange nattetimene og man er uten mobildekning. Det mest utfordrende m\u00e5 v\u00e6re \u00e5 leve s\u00e5 tett innp\u00e5 hverandre ombord. Det er mange hensyn \u00e5 ta.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n\n\n\n
«What I liked the best about The Tall Ships Races was the social part of it. You get to know eachother very well. You live on top of eachother for a week, where you participate in watches and have work that you do together. Playing cards until the late hour and you are without reception on your phone. The most challenging thing must be living so closely on so many people onboard. You have to show a lot of consideration.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Espen (24)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\n«Det kjekkeste med \u00e5 v\u00e6re ombord, er som sagt over, at alt stress bare forsvinner n\u00e5r du ikke har telefon. I tillegg til at man bor s\u00e5 tett p\u00e5 mennesker.
Det mest utfordrende for mange vil ogs\u00e5 kanskje v\u00e6re at man bor s\u00e5 tett p\u00e5 mennesker. Mange er ikke vant til \u00e5 v\u00e6re rundt s\u00e5 mange mennesker hele tiden, men man blir fort vant til det. S\u00e5 selvom det kanskje er utfordrende i starten, vil jeg absolutt si at det blir kjekt etterhvert.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n\n\n\n
«The most fun thing about being onboard a ship is already mentioned above. The stress just vanishes when you do not have reception on your phone. In addition to living together with so many people. The most challening part about being on a ship is that you live together with so many people on a very limited space. A lot of people is not used to it, but you learn it quit quickly. It might be challenging in the beginning, but you learn to like it eventually.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ville du anbefalt arrangementet videre til en venn? Hvorfor\/ Hvorfor ikke?\/ Would you recommend the event to a friend? Why\/ Why not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n«Jeg ville nok kanskje anbefalt det, for du treffer mye folk. P\u00e5 Caroline af Sandnes var vi ca. 20, s\u00e5 man kommer veldig tett p\u00e5 hverandre. Det er jo stas \u00e5 v\u00e6re p\u00e5 en seilb\u00e5t ogs\u00e5.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<\/p>\n\n\n\n
«I would probably recommend it, since you meet a lot of new people. On the ship «Caroline af Sandnes» we were about 20 people, so you get to know eachother pretty well. It is nice to be on a ship as well.»<\/p>\n\n\n\n
