Back From Sea!

Pictured above, myself (among others) preparing to scramble into a liferaft which we have just un-capsized.

( MOAR related pictures! )

I just got back from 9 days of sailing about on the Pilgrim. It was heaps of fun and included, among other things, being forgotten on a deserted island (well for about an hour), cranking up anchors by hand, setting sail of course, climbing about the rigging, delicious food (our cook was a very skillful restaurant chef!), beautiful isolated beaches that can only be reached by swimming to shore, lots of other adventures, and yes swabbing the deck.

I have about 315 photos to go through and edit and post, but in the m!ean time I have one video and no idea how to edit it so I've gone ahead and posted it:

Tour of the main mast! Wherein I climb from deck to the top of the main mast with my camera in one hand taking a video! (:
