Question, Does someone stand watch twenty four hours or do you drop anchor and sleep all night? The photos alone are artist quality. Julie if you are in charge of the camera you are very talented. I get excited just looking at each days progress. Enjoy!
Sherry – great question – thus far we have been dropping anchor (or tying up to a dock) and sleeping peacefully all night. When we get the masts and sails back up we may sail all night from Alabama to Florida, but it depends upon the weather. If we do that then we’ll be standing watch 24 hours.
