The Razor's Edge
Refuge Cove (lee of Direction Island, Cocos Keeling, Eastern Indian Ocean)
Nearly two weeks on the hook, nearly as long to go. "Swallow the anchor" - no way, NEVER. Rested and ready; present and sober (just now).
18th and 19th Century sailors notoriously became very unhealthy in foreign ports awaiting orders. 21st Century Terrwynese are gaining strength however ...
Terrwyn: she is ready
- Port durand box sealed - Solent mast head terminal secured - �"Monti' (servo-pendulum wind vane) lines tightened and water paddle cleaned of barnacles - Maxi- prop sacrifical zinc replaced - Boot stripe scrubbed clean - Caprail brightwork sanded and stained - Watering completed - Grog replenished - Hard tack and salt beef stowed away
Terrwynese:
Starboline (Pipper)
- 2000 + photos taken and catalogued - tan deepening - Bbq's for 4 solo European sailing captains and myself - Bread-making fool - Chef extraordinaire - Sektching madly - Looking sexier and sexier - Current cribbage overlord - Dancing queen - Blog writing daily - Reading one book every two days
Larboline (Scuppers)
- enough reef fishing, bring on more pelagic - gaining weight (bad) - devoured Cocos history yearning for Mauritius, Mascarene Islands - waking spontaneously "What this boat needs"... -these beach BBQ's can be hard on a sailor guy - re-reading Patrick O'Brian's love of ships, the sea and wild, impossible voyages - crossing oceans.
Let us cross this one. The Central Southern Indian Ocean; SWS directly into old Southern Ocean aged Grey Beards riding on reinforced SE Trades. Scurry on before the official start of the Anit-podal Cyclone season. Blue Marlin country.
Scuppers is relaxing even rested which is not easy and bored is just over the horizon ... next week cannot come soon enough.
