Hatha Maris day 11 - 5/12/2019
Midway and 30000 boat log,
The big day of the Midway is today. We were all waiting for it asking “how many miles away we are?” and “what with the other boat?”... “oh they already finished it?!”... and so on and so forth.
Finally we did it. It was somewhere around 3pm after we moved our clock to -1, for the second time of the passage. The other watch was on duty when I woke up to the screaming of “Yulia get up!!! Bring the second bottle of cava as well!”. Mirijam was helming while we were having fun, singing the songs from the Sweeds (Sophia & Ebba) - a special edition playlist, drinking cava, driving crazy, throwing the empty bottle into the Atlantic like a bride throwing her flowers during a wedding etc.
One hour later or so we had a magnificent dinner served by our Chef Corinne: delicious pasta carbonara (as hot and spicy as Corinne herself).
Last but not least is our fishing update: dramatic loss of lure and weights by some fish much bigger than we were able to hold.
Some insider highlights of our typical dialogues:
Thalita: Tara bear off (going way too fast up wind in the wrong direction)
Tara: Oh i wanna have fun !
Thalita: But I don’t wanna go deep south but west (here playing the music of “go west”)
Just another good day out at sea!
