The Voyage

Voyage Route
Our journey begins on the sub-tropical Pacific island of Okinawa, Japan, where s/v Intrepid has been cruising the East China Sea for seven years. It was here, where our intrepid green sailing machine was converted to run with electric power and the initial sea trials were conducted under the banner of Aoki-Intrepid Seas sailing school and cruises. It is very tempting to stay in this beautiful part of the world forever, but the call of adventure is irresistible and so we must head to sea and discover what lies beyond the horizon.
On this page, we will document the progress of this attempted circumnavigation of an electric auxiliary powered sailing vessel. Along the way, reports will be posted to the main blog and indexed here on this page for reference. This index of voyage posts will serve as s/v Intrepid's online ship's log and a diary of our voyage. We will also try to document and report on anything else interesting that we discover along the way that might be of interest to other cruisers, world travelers and global citizens.
