Delle varie tappe che caratterizzano il giro del mondo in barca a vela, il passaggio attraverso il Golfo di Aden è, di questi tempi, sicuramente una fra le più memorabili e cariche di emozioni. Ai soliti imprevisti e alle consuete incognite legate alla navigazione e alla meteo, vengono infatti ad aggiungersi i rischi di un attacco pirata, nonché il pericolo di venir coinvolti direttamente o indirettamente nei disordini e nelle stragi che interessano l’area compresa fra lo Yemen e la Somalia.
