Day 30: Batten down the hatches
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009It’s Tuesday here, just to let you all know that we’ve heard news that there is heavy weather coming in. I thought I’d let you know how we prepare for a storm on a boat of this size. Firstly we make sure there are no leaks, double checking everything is tied down correctly and making sure we know where the safety equipment is. We also put the para anchor out, I’m just checking the lines on that now. This will hold our position and prevent us from drifting in an adverse way i.e. East towards Australia. Â We are looking to see some quite serious conditions but we are both fine, looking forward to getting through that and starting to head west again. Looking forward to leaving a blog later this week to let you know how its all going.
Thanks again for your support. Thanks again for the message from Ben Fogle, Ashley and Craig. Craig we’ve just been listening to your song, thanks for that.
Take care guys.
Guy out.
