OCC PO Oliver Solanas Heinrichs has announced an Atlantic cruise in company from the Canaries to Barbados via the Cape Verdes in January.
The founder and CEO of 8islas.com and author of the Cruising Guide to the Canary Islands is returning for a second year to host the start of the Viking Explorers. The rally will leave around the 6th of January so participants can spend Christmas at home and take off when the trade winds settle in. With a very reasonable price, the goal is not have as many boats as possible but to assemble the friendliest group.
OCC members can become members of 8islas.com for free and receive the benefit of the discounts offered by the participants regardless of whether they join the rally or not.
Furthermore, anyone joining the rally can qualify for OCC membership after completion. It's a great way to get your 1000 mile qualifying passage in the company of fellow cruisers.
