The news is in! The world's largest solar powered ship has made it to the American's, on it's maiden voyage around the globe.
In just 26 days the Turanor has managed to sail across the Atlantic Ocean as the crew have spotted their first islands in the Caribbean. With the power of the sun's rays pushing the vessel and her crew on, team Turanor have come along way. Live updates from the crew have told us that they've all switched on their mobiles in order to pick up the local network. They are also extremely happy to feel like they're part of civilisation once again, considering that they've been floating in the Atlantic and praying for sunshine for weeks now. Another interesting fact that the reports have told us is that the crew hadn't seen land for over three weeks. This was a first for some of the team, so you can imagine how delighted they were when they spotted the Anguilla Island, the first sign that they had officially made it across the Atlantic.
Their journey is not over yet though, as this is a round the world expedition. So for more updates and pictures from this voyage, all you have to do is log onto Hummba.com.
We are extremely proud of the Turanor and her crew here at Hummba.com, so much so that we'd like you to check them out for yourselves right here
