Once the motor was off and we were under sail power exclusively, many paused to enjoy the sensation. |

John the Bosun surprised most of those aboard by going barefoot for most of the trip, even though the rest of us were bundled up for the weather. |

Most of the students preferred these lessons to Math or French, for some reason! |

Bosun John was not very impressed here - someone had managed to get a dishcloth jammed in the head after dumping the dishwater and pumping for all they were worth! Sometimes it´s not so much fun being bosun! |
