TMDay1216: The Sailing Expedition of the year!

Today was the best day of my life! Never sailed out like this on my own to somewhere new and everyone was safe and sound! Also had half the crew preparing lunch while sailing!

The waves were choppy due to the monsoon wind and the boat was bumping up and down and always at a 30 degrees…

But it was so awesome. And I need to plan tomorrow’s expedition…

TMDay1215: Day Skipper Course Day 1

Started the course today. Was really surprised to find that I was the only one on Day Skipper while the rest is on competent crew. But the group was so warm and friendly, I think I will have no problems staying with them for the next few days.

Today I sailed Endeavour using Stirling instead of tiller. Weather was stormy and she was tilting much.

Also had a great experience preparing lunch for the entire crew!

At night, I was tasked with the waypoints for tomorrow’s expedition. Sigh. Not easy.
