After spending Christmas and New Year's Day in Cristobal in the Canal Zone, Return of Dove sailed through the Panama Canal with both Robin and Patti aboard (so Robin ended up not completing his entire journey alone) and reached Balboa on January 17, 1970.

Graham spent nine months in South Africa, calling on ports along the southern edge of the continent including East London, South Africa, Port Elizabeth, Plettenberg Bay, Knysna, Stilbaai, Struisbaai, Gordon's Bay and finally Cape Town.

On October 12, 1968, Dove sailed out of the mouth of the Suriname River and headed to Barbados.
