Escapado - Daily Log 27/11/2019



Escapado Log Entry From Crew Member Georgie

A day of sail trimming and sail changes, low winds, nature spotting, and good eating.

Cloud prevailed with a gloomy sunrise butane luminous pink sunset

Today's highlight was a pod of 20 or so dolphins that came to play- cue a lively debate on dolphin VS porpoise (unresolved)

Also joining us was Petey the pigeon who wished to be remembered by "presents" he left on the deck - hastily cleaned away by a less than impressed skipper

Changing sails also kept us occupied as we skirted around pockets of dipping and changing wind. We switched from our asymmetric spinnaker to code zero and back to asym before a planned gybe as the evening closed out. Our crew are getting increasingly proficient with fewer tangled lines and puzzled faces looking back at the helm

We've eaten like [kings] as the cooking gets taken even more seriously. Looking forward to future three-course meals on this passage
