If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

[status] 884 nm to Mauritius. A beam reach ... sailor's dream. Seas are less confused so the ride is pretty comfortable. Dare we say that? We are still maintaining a shortened sail plan (1st reef main + staysail) to keep things comfortable. All well on board.

[status]Lionel is a happy chappy - he has ticked something off from his bucket list. A swim with a tiger shark! Yip, you read that correctly! We had just returned to Kiapa after a most enjoyable kite session when we saw a shark swimming around the stern. It came up shallow enough to be identified, so quick as a flash Lionel grabbed his mask and slid in off the back steps to have a closer look. A tiger to be sure, about 2m long, ever so gracefully mooching around. And we've got video footage to prove it!
