On the rough Atlantic we sail at about seven knots in Force 8–9 winds, surrounded by waves, white horses and the raw power of nature. On the bridge we marvel at the spectacular display, whilst in the bunk the constant rolling poses a challenge. A tiny ship, a 33-strong crew, united against the elements. Despite the swell and salt spray, we cherish the beauty of the seascape and the camaraderie of the crew. Alongside the challenge of sailing, we find time for useful activities such as learning splicing and serving.
