Yacht Delta is about to Leave the Homeland
The guys are in St. Petersburg, putting the final touches on the boat and doing what can and/or should be done while they still are in Russia. It is left to change the accumulators, the winch and a little bit more. This weekend yacht DELTA is most likely to pass the customs procedures and … that’s it! After that, the whole globe is ahead!
Round the World in Three Years
An expedition on a Russian yacht Delta has started from Moscow. During the voyage, the crew will visit dozens of cities, at the same time testing the operation of the Russian navigation system GLONASS.
A box for a box, a case for a case… On June 12, 2011, yacht Delta sailed ‘light’ from the Kremlin walls, food and equipment are being loaded only now – here, in 10km from Moscow. Provisions, clothes, and even a welding set. The navigation system has just been installed. The unique case: For the first time in the history of round-the-world trips, apart from GPS equipment, the Russian GLONASS system will also operate on board. Its testing is the main purpose of the expedition.
