The world tour expedition of the Russian Ocean Road (ROW) continues with a new boat, traveler Evgeny Kovalevsky told socialbites.ca.
“There is a boat. The boat has the necessary equipment. Water, food. This would have been impossible without the help of compatriots living in Australia! A deep greeting and a big thank you to everyone who helped us. Special thanks to the Tomsk philanthropist for the sailing boat. The boat is wonderful,” he said traveler.
On Tuesday, November 7, the crew departed the Townsville Yacht Club in Australia. The route runs north along the Australian coast to Cape York and Thursday Island.
“From there we plan to go to Bali, Indonesia. Next to New Year’s to Thailand, then to the Indian Ocean. Exploration continues,” Kovalevsky noted.
