Join Norwegian Herman Reksten as he shares his experiences as captain of the fishing vessel Al Awda which was intercepted and boarded in international waters and taken to Israel on July 29, 2018. This was his third attempt at breaking the blockade of Gaza even though he is not quite 30 years old. Get a feel for life on a boat trying to break the over 10 year old Gaza blockade!
He is visiting the United States after spending six months as a crew member on a rescue boat in the Mediterranean.
