Navy boat INSV all-women crew made its way through rough weather

The Indian Navy's sailing boat INSV Tarini, with an all-women crew, on Monday entered Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands, after crossing the Cape of Horn on January 18.

The boat is on its maiden voyage to circumnavigate the world. It is likely to depart Port Stanley on February 4.

The vessel and the crew experienced rough weather and stormy winds during the passage across the Pacific ocean that spanned 41 days, an official statement said.

This coupled with the extremely cold climatic conditions prevailing in the region, proved to be a daunting task for the Indian Navy crew.
