Leaving Rognan approximately 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle and
following the Norwegian coast down to Bergen, we will cross the North
Sea to the Shetland Isles, go around Scotland and Ireland and end our
journey in Brittany. Our journey may be modified depending on the manoeuvrability
of the boat.
It is a fact that a project such as this has never been realised. Others
have left on longer trips, but never in such a small boat as this. If
we succeed, we will have travelled 3600 miles in a 20 foot boat without
a cockpit!
To survive on the way we will fish, and on shore visits play the bagpipes
in duet as well as singing and flute.
For security reasons we will be taking some modern equipment with us:
GPS, a radio to contact other ships if necessary, sleeping bags and modern
sailing apparel.
