11 gennaio 2020 partenza della Cape2Rio. A bordo di Almagores 2 saranno 17 giorni di traversata, di regata, di avventure, di foto, di video. Ne ho fatto un diario che ora vi racconto 18 video dalla partenza a Cape Town all'arrivo a Rio. +9 Oggi il comitato ci ha comunicato che è in arrivo una bassa pressione davanti a Rio un po bruttina e consiglia di stare a nord per scavalcarla meglio. Rotta che noi abbiamo scelti gia prima per questo motivo, tenendo d’occhio la depressione anche perché non vogliamo fare soffrire la barca. Fatto strano: Due notte fa nel suo turno Federico ci ha raccontato di aver visto i UFO perché nella notte ha visto delle luce strane. noi che non abbiamo incotratrto ne terra ne nave da gia un po di giorni…Noi ovviamente lo abbiamo preso in giro e chiesto cosa aveva messo nei suoi sigari. Adelaide ne ha pubblicato il racconto sul blog della barca. Sta mattina riceviamo una mail via il comitato di regata di un pilota della SAA (South Africa Airline) appassionato di vela che seguendo il cracker della regata. Aveva segnato la posizione delle barche e durante il suo avvicinamento a Capetown con l’aereo ci ha sorvolato di notte e per farsi nottare ha acceso a più ripresa le luce di atterraggio, che avrà visto senza saper solo Federico. Avendo poi letto il blog e delle visione notturne di Federico, ha deciso di illuminarci un altra volta dandoci spiegazione. Questa storia ci ha molto sconvolti e abbiamo cercato per giorni poi nostro amico pilota nel cielo.
