Sunrise - ARC2021 - Day #9 on the SUNRISE

Although our blog started with a slight delay - from now on: we´ll try to keep you updated more regularily!

Our great skipper supported by the crew´s skilled hands managed to repair the genoa to such an extend that we are able to use it again. We used a drill, a steel shakle and some more parts to re-establish the connection to our forestay. So we are back on track with our main genoa, riding the trade winds with around 8 knots. Actually we're considering to rename our vessel to "MacGyver II" but the owner might have some concerns about that ... ;-)

However, still no news on our tuna-project. So far, all our baits were obviously not attractive enough for these delicious guys. But we keep on trying and as our ship's name SUNRISE claims - day after day, we're still letting the sun rise! Stay tun(a)ed...
