As from next summer 2014, well-known skipper Jimmy Cornell will start from London a wonderful round the world sailing rally named Blue Planet Odyssey aiming to raise awareness of the global effects of climate changes on the Arctic pack-ice, the Galapagos islands,  the Great Barrier Reef… One of the main moments will certainly be the crossing of the Arctic Northwest passage. 

 

 

 

Jimmy Cornell  and his team will sail aboard  the Garcia Exploration 45 (picture here below), a new aluminium boat of 13,98 meters  with a draft of 1,05 meters designed by Garcia Yachting for high latitudes and tropical waters… 

 

 

Two boat specifications did attract my attention:  the deck salon with 270° visibility, great for Arctic wildlife observation and inside, the steering position always great once you are confronted to extreme weather…  Click here to view the elegant Garcia Exploration 45 and  its technical specifications  >>

 

I invite you to surf under www.blueplanetodyssey.com to discover more in detail this wonderful Green project!

Let’s all be united for the Arctic and its wonders!
