Description

Round the World with Rosinante

Round the World with Rosinante relates the tale of a west-to-east circumnavigation of the world in a 12 metre yacht.

Starting from Hobart in Tasmania, Rosinante sailed around Cape Horn, north along the east coast of South America, through the Caribbean and across the North Atlantic Ocean to Europe. After crossing Sweden by canal to the Baltic Sea, Rosinante entered the Western European canal system in north Holland to emerge 8 months later at Bordeaux in western France.

After a summer exploring the Western Isles of Great Britain, Rosinante returned to Hobart via South America, the Cape of Good Hope and a 49 day passage across the Southern Ocean.
