>>979510Pic related, my ship with a makeshift forejib.
We'd sail into any water that seemed like it'd go somewhere nice with 3 boats and like 15 people. We'd sleep under bridges and eat soup for 10 days.
The three staff members would only visit in the evening to check if no one had gotten a boom in their face while tacking.
I was captain for 2 years, my bud was my quartermaster. One time we decided to sleep on our boat which was docked under the bridge as well. The bridge was located right next to a lake and we could watch the sun set while the kids got a fire going. A while later we decide it's time to go to bed
> Putting out the fire and stuff the empty soup cans in a plastic bag>Quartermaster bud comes over and tells me it's probs gonna rain tonightIt's probs better to sleep in the boat because sleeping near the edges of the bridge would get our stuff wet
>Why the fuck not>Check the tent pegs that we used to dock the boat>Seems secure enough>Pull the sails and oars onto land to make space to sleep>Go to sleep>Wake up from keel making noise because of a ship passing by>Go sleep again>Wake up in the morning>Keel making noise again because of wavesCould've expected this
>Tent pegs don't hold a steel ship with people in it>It didnt rain that night>Wake up my quartermaster>We're in the middle of the fucking lake without oars or sails>Ask him if he's got his bluetooth speaker>He basically sleeps with the thing>Yes>Thankgod.jpg>Remove ipod from speaker charger and start charging my phone>Call the other captains>Still asleepWe have some sort of morning swim while we waited for the others to wake up
>Try again>Other captain picks up phone and asks where the fuck we are>Can you come and bring our sails and oars?>Other captain asks where the fuck we are and why we are gone without our sails again>tell the storyThey take their time getting ready for another day of sailing and they pick us up along the way
At least we avoided morning dishes
