Ostrea - sinterklaas



Day seven at sea was a day with a lot of wind. We sailed with the genua and the mainsail, both with a reef. Once we had a big wave in the boat, Pien was wearing her harnas, she didn't even looked surprised.. During the day there are a lot of things to do. I (Sabien) was busy with making fruit, turning vegetables and doing school. Although it is quite bumpy in the boat, Mare and Katie are still able to do their lessons. Even the writing looked very neat. During the night the wind was still blowing between 25 and 28 knots. The boatspeed was eight most of the time. I saw one boat and passed it within two hours. Fortunately there were no squalls this night. A lot of nights Sinterklaas (a famous saint in Holland) brings us presents. The kids are very pleased the helpers of Sinterklaas are able to bring the gifts at the boat. They are thinking they must come by seahorse, speedboat
or helicopter.
We keep you posted!
