This is George the skipper we had for the first 2 days of our sailing voyage. I had rather hoped that he would spend some time showing us the ropes but his idea of skippering was to deliver us to our destination rather then show us what to do. We spent enough time with him to gather what we needed. Here we are sailing in heavy seas (Beaufort 6). The swell was pretty excessive and Julie was feeling very poorly. Luckily it was only necessary to experience this whilst crossing the open seas on the way to the islands. After this we were in sheltered regions only.
