Remarks: Sunny and hot Saturday at sea. Crew clean and oil the carpenter tools, we evacuated the carpentry shop and Dan oversees tool overhaul. Amelia works on ratlines. Ollie is serving up foot ropes. Spring, Mike and Dirk work the sextants. Bright sunny day, small seas. Turkey leftovers for lunch – the best!
