Rockall 2022 Dxpedition – MM0UKI/p

6th May 2022
Unfortunately, it is now highly likely the Dxpedition to Rockall (scheduled June 2022) will be postponed for a year.
 
Sadly, the team have not been able to secure the correct type of vessel and currently, their only hope is for a cancellation (of another vessel). This seems very unlikely at this late stage so we anticipate the Dxpedition to be rescheduled to 2023. Dates will be announced in the coming months.
 
The Team are obviously very disappointed but thank you all for the support and encouragement that you have given the project.
