Challenger 1 - crew Blog challenger 1 30/11/19



29/11/19

A couple of very hot past days as we make our way west. The breeze has been fairly light but everyone on board is in good spirits and the prospect of some good conditions early next week has certainly helped to boost the team. Our course has been unchanged and our progress steady. Last night some of the crew enjoyed a fish (unknown species) and banana broth which didn’t fail to raise a few eyebrows but everyone is keen for some bigger fish. Only 2241 nm till St Lucia!

Red watch (Lucas)


What are you most looking forward to when we reach the other side?

Well I am most looking forward to the welcoming that the people of my island will provide to us as we are proudly representing then. Oh..! and lets not forget to mention that 12 hour power nap am going to have as soon as we hit the docks.

What’s been a highlight of the trip so far? 

There have been numerous highlights to the trip so far, but if I had to pick the best it would be the fancy costume party. The reason for this is because  its quite fascinating to see people of all different cultures partying together and having a good time dancing to music and socializing. Also the Start of the ARC.
