Synopsis
ISBJORN is heading south again, this time alongside the Swan 59 ICE BEAR! Join the boats in Annapolis, MD and cruise down the Bay, either going nonstop and offshore, or stopping near the mouth of the Chesapeake to wait for a weather window. Once offshore, it's 1,400 miles of serious ocean sailing, finishing in the tropical Caribbean! (Finish port TBD).
Due to the changing COVID-19 situation in the Caribbean, we’re not sure yet which island will be our landfall, and indeed it’s possible it may even change while the boats are at sea. We need to stay flexible! Most likely landfalls are as follows:
Tortola, BVI
Falmouth Harbor, Antigua
St. Martin
USVI or San Juan (would require a stop in Bermuda en-route).
It’s also possible we may be forced to stop in St. George’s, Bermuda once at sea, depending on weather, or if we need to make landfall in a US territory in the Caribbean. Since our boats are foreign-flagged, we are prohibited from sailing from one US port to another directly (long story!).
