Lomvi - Day 14 - Summer winter



Dear collaborators,

It's the 1st of December! Usually this mean heavy rain +3 degrees and 17/18 hours of darkness for us back home in Bergen. However, we are floating along a huge round and yellow sun, supplying us with hot summer vibrations. How hot will Grenada be, when it's this hot out here?

Last night while Line was performing an elegant maneuver of switching the spri-boom from on sheet to the other, as we jybe. The boom came loose. Luckily Line was not hit by the loose potatogun on deck.

The end of the boom, whatever it is called, was dismantled to all of the 7 pieces it is made of. And it must be a glitch in the matrix that these parts were not feed to Kraken.

We stitched the wounded boom together. The final touch of alot of duck tape will hopefully hold the rest of the trip. We use it every day, and are very grateful for its contribution to the relaxedness of this trip. If its a steady 10 to 14 ms wind, we can set the genoa with the boom, and it's like riding the train, it all goes by itself.

Lasagna for dinner, and brownies for dessert to celebrate that we are now a few nautical miles closer to the Caribbean, and that we are taking a long weekend this weekend.

We hope you are doing well! Thank you to Tellef for supplying us with ukulele songs.

See you in the sun!
T7S
