Amulet - First Report



Ours is a tale of 2 types of crew. The cruisers/leasure trippers and the rouge racer on board. 10 min before our start 2 of the cruisers (c) were at the restaurant having a beer and salad. Racer(R) was pacing the boat tapeing meat-hooks. We were the last boat on our pier to depart, and the band had quit. during provisioning the c's were loading copious quantities of everything a feasting King might desire while R was agast at the gluttony, knowing we would be feeding the fish along the route. Diesel and water was toppedand then some; R believes we could power all the way and have enough consumable liquids to sustain a non-stop circumnavagation. After the start and working our way up to the front of our class, R went off watch to cook dinner (over baked enchiladas barely edible but hot). Upon coming on watch @ 0300 R was surprised to see that only sail up was the main; c's desired less genoa flogging and better sleep. Currently heading SSW on the traditional trade route although R is anxious to cut the corner at some point. So far R has not been keel-hauled or deposited in a dory foe someone else to put up with.
