In September 2010, Børge Ousland called Eric to join his crew on board Northern Passage, from Cambridge Bay to Pond Inlet, the most tricky part of the North-West Passage. The 31 foot trimaran left Oslo on 23rd June 2010, and was back home on 16th October 2010. This is the first yacht around the Arctic in one single season, 12 months faster than Vagabond!
