Looks like the wind has returned to Luderitz a bit too late for the Aussie adventurers. What a shame!

Anyone for a quick trip to Africa?

The canal will still be there. All you need is a hire car/van and a mate to drive it! I don't think it would be hard to track down one of the trailers they used and pay a driver if you were really keen.

Lets see.... Return flights direct to Luderitz, say about $3000 return. Hire car, oh say about $100 a day. Hotel about $60 a day plus food. Excess baggage about 15KG at $60/KG = $900 x 2 (return flight) =$1800. Lets say about $6000 all up.

Hmm, I wonder what that works out at dollars per run down the canal?

Gidday Daffy,
How about a review of your trip for SB sailors??
Conditions, ease or difficulty etc?
What are the guns like??
Would make a great read.
