8 décembre, bateau retrouvé à Sao Caetano De Odivelas, dans le nord du Brésil,

The  650 AUS 797 belonging to the Australian skipper Scott Cavanough, has been found by local fishermen on a small island at the North-east coast of Brasil, Ilha do Machadinho, close to the port of São Caetano de Odivelas, not far from Belem. Scott abandoned the Transat 650 on oktober 25, after a collision with a supertanker in the Intertropical Convergence Zone (doldrums), about 1700 nautical miles (=3100 km) from the finish in Salvador de Bahia. Mini 650's are unsinkable, due to the obligatory foam fixed inside the boat. This is a disadvantage for which there has not yet been found a solution in the case it has to be abandoned on the Ocean. from NED602 website,
