Sally dressed for the Arctic with weasel suit (thinsulate one piece suit covered with wind proof Pertex) and oil skins as we nosed out past the northerly ramparts. Massive waterfalls, soaring cliffs and sea stacks chiseled by northerly storms. Thankfully though there are no storms forecast. In fact we just have 4 knots of wind and are motor sailing.
Sally and Simon left Scotland in 2015 on board Shimshal to begin a slow circumnavigation taking in various high latitude destinations. After 3 seasons in Greenland we sailed south to Lewisporte in northern Newfoundland. In 2019 we cruised the Canadian Maritimes. In 2022 & 23 we cruised via New England, Chesapeake, Florida, Cuba, Cayman, Providencia to Bocas del Toro. In late 2023 we transited the Panama Canal in readiness of a Pacific crossing in 2024.
