The solo journey of Fedor Konyukhov to Cape Horn on the rowboat “AKROS” has started a bit more than one week ago, but because of the headwind half of the distance he covered has been in vain. He still has managed to keep the Southern course and preventing the boat from drifting West , back towards New Zealand. Yesterday we contacted the head of Fedor Konyukhov's team, his son Oscar Konyukhov and asked him, how things at the ocean are going?
