this is our aft cabin the place where we
sleep and
these are the noises we have been hurry
for the last uh
three four days and i think it will take
two more
and then the cold front will be gone
and there will be less winds hopefully
the boat won't rock that much or roll or
whatever you want to call it
and then um you will be able to sleep a
bit better
hopefully so um
yeah the noise you hear is from the
lines that are attached to the cleats
just above
um where you guys are actually just
above you and
uh yeah because the wind is coming from
the south now it pushes the boat
to um the port side and
so that's the line you can hear that's
continuously
um pulling slacking and
tensioning up slacking and tensioning up
and also of course the starboard line
for sure that one
um because the board line is now quite
slack
and uh yeah so that's how we sleep
it's not only the noise but it's also a
bit
rolling so we lay next to each other
and i mean your body is continuously
like
rolling yeah that's it so uh
it's not very sleep inducing of course
not and we both are not the best
sleepers in the world
and besides that it's also a bit painful
for your back because your back doesn't
get any rest
so you feel it in there but we had this
conversation with a few other sailors as
well
and they told us that for example if you
if you're crossing oceans and you're
going downwind which means this turn or
the wind comes from the stern
that you get big waves so the boat goes
really up and down up and down for
however long the voyage
takes to cross an ocean probably three
weeks to a month
tops so that it
can be quite painful but then after
three four days it seems
always to happen that you get used to
the situation or you just don't care
anymore maybe
and uh yeah i can't confirm that because
we
well we only have we didn't do ocean
crossings yet almost
um we had it in uh laka here in greece
that was the worst
for now and also actually here in the
place we were we are now
uh we had it for two three days the
rocking which is um
yeah i told you a few guys a few times
already i guess
it's quite works on your um mental um
health coral time trident screeches
banshee like in the tempest
and plunges right through your garlic
and of course you're tired and which
results in
that you're not thinking too
straightforward that your
well all the uh capabilities brain
capabilities are
decreasing so it's easy to make
mistakes as long
well for now it hasn't happened with the
boat any severe situations yet
unless the one we had when we uh prop
wrapped our anchor
and were swinging around and could have
just yeah
destroyed quite a lot of other boats
which luckily luckily luckily
didn't happen so yeah
but we'll probably get into situations
that will be
difficult and hard and i guess we just
have to
go through it and you can't say no i
mean if you were imagine
i i always imagine if you're in the
middle of the ocean and i heard a lot of
stories of other sailors
and i mean the swells or you have 10
meter waves something is wrong with the
engine and you need to fix it and you're
dead tired
you just have to take it as it comes you
cannot be frustrated or angry well you
can but not for long
you just have to um
go on yeah and one situation i can
compare it with
what i personally have was again with uh
when we prop wrapped the anchor
and we were swinging around we could
have destroyed all the other boats
and um i tried to stay calm but in my
head
there was like a panic
what do we do what do we do
[Music]
so i had quite a lot of effort to stop
that and stink straight for or
i just think but um after i think
two or three minutes just yeah flip the
switch
or pull the block
[Music]
how you want to call it and then
yeah then i was able to
think logically instead of emotionally
it keeps it interesting doesn't it
so at the moment we are
trying to fish up randy and
i won't tell yet who randy is but um
let me show you how we try to fish him
up because we put him in the water
so all the he was still a bit skinny and
hairy
so to get all that off we put it in the
water so the fish can eat it and they
love it
and we have put it in the water for
about a month
i think or five six weeks and
i'll show you how ramon's trying to pick
it out
say hello john
okay let me check if you can see what
ramona's doing or trying to do
there we go trying to kill a fish
oh i think you might be got it it's like
oh there it comes
randy randy
here he comes oh
look at that boy he's clean oh that's
beautiful oh it's only
just oh wow anchor just got it
so yep meet randy boys and girls ladies
and gents
granny likes death metal yeah
randy look at that
so this is the dinghy anchor used to get
him from the ground
oh there's a bit of meat on it still so
we can still nibble it off if you want
yeah you're hungry yeah i am now oh he
smells smells bad
smells bad
this is the meat yeah yeah the grape
part
i think i'll uh i'll just leave it in
for a few more days or weeks
oh sticks fell down
nice dudes
sticks look at randy look randy
i think randy might have been a smoker
what do you think smoker
look at his teeth yeah
so what's the plan well i'm gonna put it
back in
yeah because the gray parts are the
meaty parts right
yes so uh
well i promise you he smells way better
already than before
yeah because he was hairy and
yeah and uh lovely jordan took it uh
with him for us and he walked with it
for an hour or three
crazy crazy crazy let's see
