Quick summary of last season in a few numbers:
Navigation effective du 20 septembre au 1 avril 2018.
3730 milles GPS :
- 880 milles circumnavigation des Falklands
- 2600 milles Puerto Williams – Red Rock Ridge – Puerto Williams
- 250 miles around Gordon Island in the channels of Patagonia
Falklands: 4 different anchorages, 6 weeks on site
Circumnavigation of Gordon: 9 different anchorages in 15 days
Some data on our navigation in the Antarctic Peninsula:
28 different anchorages over 90 days, averaging about 3 days per anchorage
2600 miles in 92 days, from February 7th to March 9th: average of 28 miles per day.
24kg of gas used in 3 months
260 engine hours, meaning 780 liters of diesel used for the engine
The stove ran 24/7 except when we were using the engine, the radiators are heated by an exchanger with the engine cooling circuit, consuming 100 liters per month, totaling 300 liters of diesel.
We therefore returned with 500 liters of diesel
We had planned 4 good months of food, taking plenty to account for eventualities, for example 45kg of bread flour (we made 1kg of bread every 3 days), 20kg of pasta, 15kg of rice... We returned with 1 good month extra...
Back in France, we are preparing for the next season, to be continued...
