After last years rather exhausting transatlantic the decision was made to return Milanto on the BBC Tennessee using the services of Peters and May. Next time we meet up she will be in Genoa ETA 17 days

It will be dark still in the Caribbean so time to get some rest before the friends on board Monomotapa and everyone on  Milanto party tomorrow evening. What a great way to end a fabulous trip. Congratulations to all on board both yachts!

A big thank you to all who followed us across the Atlantic and also to the team at World Cruising for another great ARC Rally.
