Boa Tarde Fabiano,

Entendes-te e bem, faltou-me acrescentar  "DXpedition em 2016 à Ilha de
Bouvet cancelada"

Não faço ideia do custo de tamanha aventura, mas não deve ficar por menos
de 100 000 Euros. Neste aspecto os americanos conseguem normalmente mais
depressa, através de fundações e particulares, os fundos necessários
para estas grandes aventuras.
