Russian family Klochkovs have been living on the ocean for eight years on their yacht Lady Mary. During that time the family passed all meridians, Atlantic, Indian, Pacific, Southern Oceans, five southern capes, including Cape Horn, the Strait of Magellan, Drake Passage, and twice crossed the equator, faced countless storms and tempests. They explored the least known portion of the Pacific and proved the absence of land marked on modern nautical charts. Andrey and Marina with their two daughters Nastya and Lada repeated some of the routes of the great explorers – James Cook, Fabian Bellingshausen, Adam Krusenstern. They walked the paths of Charles Darwin, Thor Heyerdahl and Jack London, and followed in the footsteps of the characters of Jules Verne’s book. There is no evidence of other such voyage with children anywhere in the world. The family set a new world record. “On any shore I immediately find friends, says Lada. - My dad and mum also make contact very easy and become good friends with people on the first contact; sometimes those relationships feel like we have known these people for a long time, because we might never meet them again.” “On a long cruise around the world, your friends are everyone and no one, Marina says. - Malta, the Caribbean, Colombia, Tahiti, Australia - the places we have visited and the friends we have made and lost over the years of sailing.”
