Congratulations to intrepid Forth Corinthian, Morag Edward, who has successfully sailed the Atlantic. She left Cascais in Portugal on 18th September on The Europa, a tall ship training vessel and landed in Puerto Madryn in Patagonia on 17th November 2022.
Mo is still in Puerto Madryn, where she has resumed her artistic career and is busy painting the local penguins, who are very happy to pose. Mo, who speaks Spanish has recently taken part in a local art fair.
She is hoping to move to Buenos Aires in April, but is tempted to return to Puerto Madryn in September to see the enormous Right Whales congregate in the bay for the breeding season.
What an adventure. Well done Mo.
