Richard and Pam Moore
two of our most popular speakers from last year return to share more of their sailing adventures. This time they describe their voyage through the Red Sea. Stretching 1200 nautical miles from Bab El Mandeb in the south to Suez in the north the Red Sea is narrow with huge land masses on each side; much of the terrain is mountainous and all of it is barren desert. Temperatures are high and all of this means the winds are frequently very strong. The southern part is affected by the monsoonal winds in the Arabian Sea while the northern part has north sector winds for most of the time. All in all this is a challenging stretch of water for the north-bound cruising sailor.
