Alards 4 & 5 Away

Alards 4 & 5 Away

 

At 1600 local (UTC+12), Alards 4 and 5 were launched in the company of three Wanderers. 

 

They begin their journey east, bound for Cape Horn and home borne by the great Southern Ocean Current that circles the globe in the Roaring Forties.

 

I think Alard would have approved.
