According to media sources, Two Indian Navy officers will embark on the mission of circumnavigating the globe with the second edition of the Navika Sagar Parikrama expedition. Addressing the curtain-raiser event in New Delhi today, Vice Chief of the Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Krishna Swaminathan said that the Indian Naval Sailing Vessel Tarini will set sail on this challenging expedition with Lieutenant Commander Roopa A and Lieutenant Commander Dilna K. He added that the event will be flagged off by Admiral Dinesh Tripathi from the Naval Ocean Sailing Node in Goa on 2nd October.
Vice Admiral Swaminathan described Navika Sagar Parikrama II as a journey of empowerment, innovation, and commitment to India’s maritime heritage while charting new paths for a brighter and empowered future. He reaffirmed the Indian Navy’s pledge to uphold the highest standards of professionalism and responsibility, not just on our shores but across the vast expanse of the world’s oceans.
During the interaction, both the officers shared their experiences and expressed extreme confidence for the forthcoming expedition embodying the spirit of resilience and indomitable spirit.
Over eight months, the duo will navigate 21,600 nautical miles without any external assistance, relying solely on wind power. The route will take them through some of the most treacherous waters including the perilous passage around the three great Capes – Cape Leeuwin, Cape Horn and the Cape of Good Hope.
