Descriptions and reviews

Chris SV Blue Peter says:

maritime qualities

description

Aorrussaarssuk is the best anchorage in the region.
You can anchor in 3 to 6 meters of water, with shore lines. In July, this anchorage becomes popular with sailboats awaiting the Northwest Passage. It can accommodate 4 to 5 boats.
A river brings fresh and clear water.
By crossing the channel in a dinghy and then walking to the airport, you can reach Upernavik in less than an hour.
Right in the middle of the entrance to the eastern creek, the wreck of the 10-meter sailboat Dodo’s Delight lies at the bottom, after catching fire during wintering.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated -43 minutes ago (Sunday 27 July 02:16 AM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.

The safe wind directions for this harbour has been decided by an algorithm, based on how elevated the land around the harbour is. It's mostly correct, but sometimes the underlying data about elevation levels is not good enough to make correct decisions. It's a great help to other if you can validate or adjust the safe wind directions. You can see the data used by the algorithm to decide the safe wind directions by clicking here.
