Description

Exciting Adventure sailing from the Mediterranean to the Second Cataract.

The Johnsons, famous for their seven worldwide ocean sailing voyages, brought the ketch Yankee to Alexandria in Egypt to sail her up the River Nile before the new Aswan High Dam cut off traffic in the upper reaches of Nubia. Their voyage included “weird and irrational navigation” among the Egyptians, the traffic on the Nile was amazingly busy, and they don’t bother with lights when sailing at night…..

Black and White Images record the voyage and some stops along the way.
