Herewith a few details of his journey and the fastidious preparations that preceded his departure from Victoria on August 31, 2019 and led to his safe return one year later: Dates - August 31, 2019 to September 2, 2020 Total length of passage - 29,000nm Total length of passage at sea in days - 314 days Total length of passage at sea + in port - 366 days Stops Enroute - Gambier (French Polynesia), Tiera Del Fuego Isla Hershel, Port Stanley (Falklands Islands), Cape Town SA , and Lyttleton NZ Preparation Bill’s preparation for the circumnavigation was thorough and substantial; his over-riding goal being the safe completion of his long-held dream to circumnavigate via the southern capes.
