clearing out of argentina

March 1st, 2017 - My crew on foot through the Port of Ushuaia to do the clearance paperwork for departure... Prefectura, Immigration, & Customs. This is the 8th time for the kids in & out of these offices, so they are now clearance pros in this world port.

ready to launch

By the end of February 2017, our voyage planning was finally complete. Paperwork and permits for the Falklands were in order, all systems - rigging, sails, electronics, engine, charging systems, fuel, provisioning, water, safety - were checked.  Our bottom was cleaned, route was planned and we had been obsessively watching the weather. 

The plan was to sail non-stop from Ushuaia to Punta del Este for our first shake-down outside of the protection of the channels. Anasazi Girl & our crew were ready.
