ATLANTIC CALLING

In the spring of 2017, seasoned CNCE skipper Ken Patterson embarked on the trip of a lifetime. He sailed his boat down the western coast of Europe to the Canaries and Cape Verde. In January 2018, he completed the first transatlantic leg of his journey. After cruising the Caribbean, he reached the Portuguese Island Ilhas das Flores (Azores) in May 2018. Back in the UK after another successful crossing, he invited sailors to join him on a cruise along the west coast of Wales. Ken recently completed the last leg of his amazing adventure, sailing Zaria safely back to Nieuwpoort, Belgium.
