The inaugural Islands Odyssey<\/a> came to a successful end this weekend as the boats left Barbados and headed the few miles to Martinique to meet up with the Atlantic Odyssey<\/a> fleet as they assemble for the farewell party\u00a0this evening. Beginning in Lanzarote back in October, the yachts have had a pretty epic and eventful voyage, sailing to all of the Canary Islands, on to the Cape Verdes, and finally making the Atlantic Crossing to a warm Caribbean welcome in Barbados.<\/p>\n

Both the Government and the Barbados Yacht Club have been active in welcoming the\u00a0boats and\u00a0work is underway to\u00a0build a small marina within the large commercial harbour ready for the Barbados 50<\/a> fleet in 2016.<\/p>\n

In fact, the Barbados welcome was so good that ACES4 from the Atlantic Odyssey decided to make a detour specially to visit the island.<\/p>\n

Pictures say more than words, however, so here are a selection.<\/p>\n
