Today was another great day aboard the SV Concordia. It was sunny with blue sky. We had cereal, fruit and yoghurt for breakfast which was a great start into the day.
Navigation and Day watches were very relaxed and productive. The bosun`s mate Axel taught us how to make bags out of old sailcloth and ropes and so a lot of people are currently working on bags and Axel gave us our day watch time to work on it.
The team is feeling really well and integrated into the family but we all kind of get the sad feeling of having to leave soon and so we enjoy every minute we have left with our Class Afloat family. It was such a great and happy day, as every day.
