World Cruising Club (WCC) have announced that the planned start for the 2022 World ARC rally from Darwin, NT Australia, will go-ahead on schedule in September. Picking up from the postponed 2020 edition, there are already 10 confirmed entries for the route across the Indian Ocean to South Africa, and then on to Brazil to finish in the Caribbean in April 2023.
Whilst there are still challenges with delivering the route, WCC are confident that the general situation in countries on the planned route is improving and that it will be possible to sail the published route. Suitable boats either in Australia, or able to reach Darwin by September are welcome to join the rally.
