Cassiopée W - Log Day 5 - Trial and Error



Deciding on sailing around the world as a couple is interesting and probably worth a blur of its own. But one thing we knew going into this is that our sailing experience would be put to the test. Sailing wing on wing for days using the spinnaker pole was interesting. And today was the test. We did get the pole set up a couple of days ago but today, we had to take it down and put it back up again several times. And I have learned that a few things are not worth doing. I won’t say that it’s hard on a couple, but it ain’t easy.... I guess you can think of it as a sort of “gym workout” at sea!

Well, nothing broken, harmony remains on the boat, and I must admit the view of the sun setting while looking at it through this sail arrangement is rather spectacular. Too bad we are a dry boat at sea...

Still mesmerized by this and so so happy to be here with my awesome partner!

Signing off for now, JF
