Crew Perspective

Nancy's at the helm and John is busy reading "The Boys in the Boat" on my Kindle, so I thought I would add a little crew color (colour)commentary for the blog. It is so great to be sailing with them aboard Adventuress again, and Bob is a fantastic crewmate and he completes what very well may be the perfect voyage. Other than running the engine to charge the batteries, we have been sailing between 7 and 8+ knots since we left the islands. I had heard so many stories of motoring north to Bermuda that this has been a dream passage thus far. This will be my first time ever to Bermuda and I do have some trepidation that John may have one of his prank's in store for me in way of initiation. If the rest of the voyage continues as it has started it will be a memory that I will long cherish. Thank you both for allowing me to share this with you. -- Dave
'THE VOYAGE' has commenced in memorable fashion even though we have not quite mastered the Masters techniques. The good ship Adventuress is a marvelous vessel and is delivering us quickly to our initial destination of Bermuda. I am enjoying the crew mates and their individual senses of humour. Laughter is always present and makes it so very enjoyable to be aboard. I am learning much from Dave who has great technical knowledge and trying still to keep up with John. Nancy graciously shares her knowledge and keeps us very organized. I can't wait to see Bermuda again and looking forward to the next leg of our journey and exploring the Azores with my good friends, Admiral Nancy, Captain John and 1st Mate Dave. --Bob
