>From the Trawler Web list: Dana Point, CA  (March 14, 2006)  In line with the Around The World voyage of 2001-02 and the 2004 Atlantic Rally comes another great Nordhavn adventure. This summer, a Nordhavn 46 will depart Gibraltar for a 16-month cruise to New Zealand by way of Cape Horn. The trip will be covered on www.nordhavn.com with weekly log updates and real time tracking. It will be a fantastic read for boaters and adventure enthusiasts alike. Adds Scott: I hope to encourage people to head offshore and enjoy some of the things that we  who do go offshore in our boat  get to see and do. The Flanders are also planning to write articles on everything from how they prepared themselves and their boat for the trip to how plain folks like them gained the knowledge to embark on such an ambitious excursion, and they are happy to contribute stories to magazines. Their target departure date is August 15 and they plan to arrive in New Zealand December 2007. Below is a rough outline of their itinerary: Depart Gibraltar S to Madeira S to the Canary Islands S to Cape Verde SW to Bahia de Salvador (Brazil) S down the coast of Brazil to Ponta del Este (Uruguay) S to Ushuaia (Argentina) S down the coast of Argentina S to the Strait of Magellan at Beagle Channel S to Puerto Williams (Chile) Around Cape Horn N through the Chilean canals N up the coast of Chile to Peru N to southern Ecuador W to the Galapagos Islands SW to the Marquesas Islands S to New Zealand
