Atlantic day 12

Hangover the day after karaoke night, volcano cake with Kaldera, communication and energy management on deck of the biosphera, are some of the topics we will address today. Thank you very much for your comments.

Trying to capture the waves on video. It's not that easy.

  1. Hey lovelies, it's so nice to hear your familiar voices every day and to be travelling a little further with you. I have two ideas about the shallow water question: 1. school of fish,
    2. a less amusing affair:
    sometimes fishermen lose their nets, and then they bob around under water and they are also a great danger for boats that run under engine, because they can wrap themselves around the i propeller and boats can capsize themselves. . But you are sailing, thank God. So maybe that was a larger net floating in the water.

    And I'm sure that's why you can't catch fish, because the speed of the boat is too high

    When you are at anchor, everything will be different

    Kind regards, Martina ๐Ÿ’ž

    1. That sounds great that you're happy to listen to us. Thank you also for your thoughts on the shallow water alarm. We'll never find out the answer, but it could be with the fishing nets. Normally we often have a depth reading between 35 and 45 metres, so I also suspected schools of fish. That night we also saw large fishing boats that were not on the AIS.

  2. hey!!! i had written a long comment on day 9 but somehow it didn't get published, so here then and now ๐Ÿ™‚ even though i haven't listened to days 10+ yet ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜˜

    hello lovelies! i have just done a biosphera binge - spent 1h listening to and reading your last 5 posts. it totally catapults me back to my 2 weeks transat!!! the 50 shades of blue of the sea, the rocking with the catamaran, the doubts, the food flying through the cabin, the incredible mood swings between deeply sad and incredibly happy. we had a little more luck with the fishing, especially at the beginning, but we were sailing much slower (4.5kn) and constantly completely under sail.
    and we gave up fishing from the middle, because we only fished coffin lanes, like you. and when a fish bit, it often tore. then we didn't feel like injuring fish or putting braces on them and just bought them from the locals or fished with a harpoon ๐Ÿ˜€.

    We were also 4 adults, but in addition 2 small children. and to look after and look after them every day with all the sailing and the efforts you also experienced was really a blatant thing...

    I wish you a wonderful journey, see you very soon, big smooch

    1. Dear Anja, it's so nice to read from you. Thank you so much for your long message. I am really full of respect that you made this crossing with 2 small children. I've had so much to do with myself. Yes, the highs and lows can hardly be put into words. So much happens inside you. I am definitely very grateful that I was able to have this experience and I definitely feel stronger now. See you soon, hopefully. A big hug from Martin to you all!

  3. Hello, ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™‚๏ธ
