We have decided to keep sv Wilhelm in Africa during 2009. We arrived in Mozambique in October 2008, after crossing the Indian Ocean. We sailed along the Mozambique coast to South Africa, and rounded the Cape of Good Hope in the months that followed. We arrived in Cape Town, South Africa on December 31, 2008, and will keep our boat there until January 2010. Here is a link to our sailing route from Australia to Cape Town. http://www.tripmapper.net/wilhelm
We are taking advantage of all the cultural and other activities in Cape Town, as well as the chance to explore other countries in Africa by land. (Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana.) We plan to spend June - Dec. in the USA (flying home and leaving sv Wilhelm in Cape Town.) In Dec. 2009, we'll return to Cape Town and sail toward Brazil in early 2010.
