Event Details

Departure

The challenge starts on
September 19th, 2024, in Seville,
Spain.

We aim to be fully self-sufficient
with our power.

Planned finish

Our voyage is planned to last
around 18 months in total.

Heading back to where it all
began.
That’s if we make it…

Our Route

Picturesque yet challenging.

As we explore 4 continents and cover 42,000 miles, we’ll be exposed to all
weather and environments.

Leaving Spain, we’ll head across the
Atlantic, towards South America, and then
West towards Asia.

The return leg will see us pass by
Africa and emerge, hopefully
victorious out the other side as we
head back to Spain.
