I’ve finally caught up with all of the sleep I lost last weekend. For those of you who aren’t psychic, the reason I lost sleep was that we sailed to Port Stephens and back.
This was the practical component of our AYF Coastal Skipper course. A mere 150 nautical miles in a weekend. Overall a good time was had by all, the only drawback is the four hours on, four hours off watch system. Having experienced this for just a weekend I’d like to say that long distance sailors are all nutters.
With my lie in this morning I got up full of good intentions, to tidy the house, to write some code and to watch a little cricket on the TV. Sadly, I’ve spent the last two and a half hours in front of my laptop. Its time to leave the house, au revoir.
