Boats - Sailing - Ships

Jul. 07, 1967 - He Will Emulate Sir Francis Chichester. Actor plans lone round the world voyage: Another lone round-the-world voyage will begin in about a month's time, when the 45 year-old actor and dealer in records, Rollo Gebhard, from Garmisch, Bavaria, sets sail from St. Margherias in the Mediterranean in his 7.25m. long fibre glass boat Solveig III'. Gebhard's route will be St. Margherita, Balcaria - Islands, Gibraltar, Madeira, Canari Islands, Karibisches Moor, Panama, Tahiti, New Zealand, New Guinea, South Africa (Cape of Good Hope), St. Helena, Europe. He will take films and make reports about his adventures on the trip. Gebhard, who caused a sensation three years ago when he crossed the Atlantic in his nut-shell in a record time of thirty days, wants to be home again in about three years.
