Today we woke up at 0700 in time for breakfast. The watch started at 0800 where our first task was to tighten some of the sails. As we were so fast at this task we started to learn some of the important knots that are required for the ship.
This turned into a bit of fooling around when Chris, our mentor tied our hands together with ropes linked together like two parts of a chain. We had to try and escape from this, which led to many interesting attempts that failed.
That took even the “smartest” of us at least half an hour before we were begging for help. There was some more problem solving before we had lunch. The captain let us know that we were in first place in our class in the race, yeah!
