Not on SAKURA, I was chatting to another member and he asked if we were taking SAKURA, my answer:
*Sailing 10 hours per day at our cruising speed of 10 knots, it would be 80 days each way
And about £28K in fuel each way - and we'd need to get the engines serviced 4 times each way
It ain't happening *

Yesterday rode past this interesting rocky outcrop right behind the small town of Abrapampa in northern Argentina (Jujuy province).
-
Oh wow, that's cool, do you know why it looks like that?
-
@jiminstitches only a general understanding of the why.
There is a fault line and as the underlying plates separate, the top layers start slanting towards the vertical, giving off that neat pattern of stacked differently-colored slices.
The bit I don’t know anything about, is why it undulates nearly as a sinusoidal wave along the length of the fault line….???? Perhaps that is what you are asking?
If all goes according to plan on this trip we should drive by that town again on the way back. I’ll try to ask about the wave/ sinusoidal pattern.
Maybe we have some geologist or rock guys on this forum who can explain this better than me?? -
@motojobobo Interesting indeed. Was it you that posted pictures of the hexagonal/columnar (basalt) rocks a while back as well?
Then again, maybe I'm dreaming and it wasn't on this forum at all
