ONLY IF YOU ENJOY TRAVEL AND OF COURSE SAILING BUT NOT JUST LEAVING FOR MILES ON YOUR TICKET THOUGH YOU'LL'LL GET A BIT OVER 7000 ONO THIS VOYAGE. hERE IT IS A TRUE ADVENTURE MADE POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF CLIMATE CHANGE. NO NOT STUCK IN ICE AS ALL THOSE EXPLORERS DID BUT AVOIDING DRIFT ICE AT THE START. BUT THAT IS ONE REASON I BOUGHT THIS 50 FT STEEL SCHOONER FOR THIS TRIP. LETS LLOK FIRST AT OUR ROUTE. SCOTLAND, GOOD WEATHER WINDOWS A WEEK WIHT THIS SCNOONER. NEXT WEATHER WINDOW WITH SOMOE TRAVLE IN ICLAND A DAY SO , SHORT ---ALL THESE PASSAGES ARE LESS THAN SAY 700 MILES BUT MOST ARE COAST COASTAL MILES. ICLAND FROM THE HEBRIDES WITH COMES iCLENAD AND BECAUSE OF EXPECTED WETHER PATTERNS i'LL GO THERE FIRST AS THIS SCHOONER LIKE BEAM WINDS AND LIKELY TO HAVE THOSE ON THIS SHORT CROSSING--MY SILING IS USUALLY HIGH LATITUDES OF THE pacific AND DISTANCES ARE THOUSANDS OF MNILES THERE. WITH NW FORECAST OFF TO S TIP OF GREEN LAND AND UP THE WEST COAST TO NUUK THE CAPITAL FOR CLEARANCE AND DEPARTURE. IF BAFFINI ISLAND AND POND INLET THE ENTRHY FOR CANADA AND REALLY START OF THE PASSAGES ACROSS TO ALASKA.EASTERLIES AND USUALLY LIGHT PREVAIL HERE AND SCHOONER IS IDEAL FOR THOSE BUT MOTORING TOO. 150 MILE DAYS AND AROUND N TIP OF ALASKA BY SEPT IS POSSIBLE. ALASKA LIKE GREENLAND VERY SPECIAL MAGNIFICENT GLACIERS, VOLCANOES, WILDLIKFE SALMON, COASTAL THE ENTIRE WAY TO SE ALASKA AND MY HOME NEAR SITKA, ALAKSKA OUR DESTINATION.
