	Description: The Bass Strait is a tough place to sail but that does not put off hardy folk from Australia and further to test their skills. The waves that build in the Southern Ocean pile up in the shallow waters and gales regularly sweep past, providing a test of the best prepared boat. Flinders Island is located in the eastern part of Bass Strait and the course will provide an excellent test of judging weather and navigation.

	Description: The entrance to the Mediterranean Sea is a gateway, not just in geography but also in history. There are many legends of the area from the likes of the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Goths, Vandals, and Moors. It is even the last known holdout of the Neanderthals. Our tour starts in the Atlantic and voyages between Africa and Europe and through to the Med. Dare you pass through the gates?

Round Greenland 2024

Just as Skip Novak was embarking for Kamchatsky, Amyr Klink also quietly slipped his Antarctica moorings and by now Paratii 2 has reached Reykjavik, where he invites you to join him on Leg 5 of our High Latitudes Series, a full 3650nm circumnavigation of Greenland. The course is clockwise round, so down the North Atlantic to Cape Farewell, then up the Davis Strait into Baffin Bay and on into the Arctic Ocean proper, where, hopefully and certainly virtually, Paratii 2’s special ice-breaker features will get us thorough the summer ice out onto the Greenland Sea and back to Reykjavik. Stay warm!

San Francisco to Ushuaia 2024

After a superlong RTW-leg3 (27 days), we have had a month to recover, and maintain our boat, in order to continue our around the world race. Leg 4, even longer than the previous, takes us from California to the world's southernmost city Ushuaia. No waypoints, even "the Ditch" is an option, but maybe a bit too much of a treat. With 6300 nm to go, the estimated duration of this race 29 days. This course is also the August edition of our ocean race championship.
