Bbq under sail and photo-night on deck

7 March 2013

Not only we can bear away for a bit, but the wind also decreases and is backing to the east. (Or is it called ‘veering’ here in the southern hemisphere where everything turns around?) Anyway we are still sailing towards the coast with a decreasing wind and we decide to bbq on deck. We try to hang up a tent, a lamp and place the bbq on the leeward side of the ship. Fully rigged and with a speed of 7 knots, while we all eat together on deck. After the bbq we project the results of the photo competition (soon to see on our website!). Because it is a pitch-black night (the moon is not out yet) we do this outside. When the beamer is off, everyone is impressed with the night and the beautiful starry sky.
