Berserk in trouble?

A number of years ago, I watched a DVD by a young, adventurous Norwegian and crew on an Albin Vega named Berserk. I noticed he had later gone on to a larger, steel yacht but had not followed his adventures. Now it looks as though he may be in trouble (seems as though this is him):

Apparently his EPIRB was set off, the weather is hideous, no-one was able to get to him to check it out, and now the EPIRB has stopped. Two of the five-person crew may have been landed in Antarctica previously for some exploration.
