The Transglobal Car expedition team said goodbye to Africa and went out into the open ocean. Heading for Antarctica!
Yesterday, the ship of the Russian Antarctic expedition "Akademik Fedorov" left the port of Cape Town and headed for Antarctica. On board is the team of the unique round-the-world expedition Transglobal Car, led by Vasily Shakhnovsky. Also on the ship are Arctic Trucks cars specially prepared for traveling along the Ice Continent. And specialists for their maintenance. And in the team, in addition to Shakhnovsky, we see his constant companion and participant of the 7 Summits Club programs, Alexey Safonov. And also our very close friends Sergey Larin and Vasily Elagin.
This is what our route looks like
1 - Cape Town
2 - Molodezhnaya station
3 - Progress station
The route length is about 5600 km. The timing will depend on the weather and ice conditions in the Antarctic latitudes. We should start moving across Antarctica by December 18.
