About this amazing story we read in the social network www.sosailize.net. Dutch traveler Jordi van der Voort that pandemic coronavirus was found in Australia, decided that the best way to get back home to the Netherlands under sail. He sold the car in which traveled, bought a boat and now on the Internet looking for those who will keep him company.
In fact, in the Netherlands from Australia back plane. But the tickets, as considered by van der Voort, obscenely expensive. He eventually sold the car, bought as you may already know, the yacht is a 47-foot ketch called Samara. Despite its price, the ship, judging by the photos, is in good condition.
Another important detail, according to van der Voort, is that thanks to the journey under sail will be able to avoid quarantine, which is mandatory for everyone who in these days of arriving in the Netherlands. One thought about the fact that you have two weeks to stay under lock and key, causes the Dutchman horror. And so there is a way out – while Samara will overcome the 13,000 nautical miles, the restrictions, most likely will cancel.
But, you know, what is most surprising in this story? The 28-year-old van der Voort as 23-year-old Daniel Massinga who first responded to the recent online offer to go on a long voyage, virtually no sailing experience!
That both absolutely embarrassing!
