Hi Claudia and Christie here,
Today was our first day of sailing. The morning started with us and Sally making pancakes with Simon. They were beautiful! After an unhealthy amount of pancakes we got the boat ready for sailing. Then after a quick recap of what to do we set off on a rough journey.
We started the journey at the lock gate, it was a slow and steady process but after just under an hour we were out on the rough sea. We were driving against the waves which made the boat go almost vertical leaving us and Sally on our backs in the cock-pit attached by our lifelines. Waves were crashing literally on our boat like a freezing cold shower.
When we finally arrived in Fleetwood we were all frozen and soaking. We all still had to help tie the boat to the jetty (which is VERY hard when you can’t feel your hands). When we were finished up on deck we were greeted downstairs to dawn’s infamous hot chocolate.
We started a tea of mash and fish straight away. Everyone was starving after our busy day so we all had clear plates;)
Claudia & Christie :D
