I am cooking up an idea of taking Gertha to Bermuda for the Americas cup in 2017.

Bermuda has a massive natural harbour and is days from anywhere; so the chance of filling this area is zero.

The island is expensive ; but anchoring is free, however there may be a fee of some sort , staying on own boat has to be favourite .

The trip will be a multi leg affair
!. UK to Canaries summer 2016, either via Portugal or the Azores, poss in 2 separate legs one in june and one in september
2 Canaries to Caribbean mid November / December 2016 using ARC + cape verdi
3 Caribbean to Bermuda May/June 2017
4 Bermuda to UK but maybe USA


Paying volunteers required for all legs.


Anyone else thinking of taking a Hanse to Bermuda for this event.

Simon

Give me enough months off, and I will follow you to Bermuda :)
P.S. And take any amount of cold beer, which you can not put in your boat :)

We also cross the Atlantic from Cabo Verde in nov/dec 2016 tot Surinam and then further on to the Caribbean. After that we go to the N/E of the USA. Sounds a good idea ! Bermuda is lovely, we were there in 2005 !

Ours is still in the factory and will be delivered in about 4 weeks. After that some changes will be made !
