A workday for Rene & Brian on Necessity, so Stew and Ange took the car and headed east to Gela which they found uninteresting. From there, they went to a small hill town called Butera which they found spectacular. They returned to find sails and canvas installed and helped hoist Brian aloft to install the wind instruments at the masthead.
After dinner on board of chicken and pasta with pesto and caprese salad it was soon time for bed.
