Note that The total length of the worlds coastline is in the region of 217,490 miles. If we were to sail the coastline of the world averaging 40 miles per day it would take almost 15 years to complete the journey.

Our plan is to sail up the coast to Prince Edward Island and then see about having someone sail our boat to Ireland. From there we could sail along the coast to a destination yet to be determined.
