Reefing lines are important on a sailboat because they enable us to reef down the main sail (reduce sail area) when in strong winds. We had accidentally crossed two of our reefing lines when we rerouted them to make place for our new staysail halyard. This faux pas meant Adam couldn't reef our main sail when he needed. Although conditions were fine at the time, we're lucky he caught this now and we avoided a serious situation that could have occurred because of this mistake.

Sono 198 giorni che abbiamo mollato gli ormeggi da un pontile conosciuto per immergerci h24 in mari inesplorati. Sempre nuovi, mai ribattuti. Non ancora, almeno. Abbiamo superato la metà di questo viaggio (oltre 7.000 miglia) e comunque solchiamo sempre acque sconosciute. Mi riferisco alla vita in barca ma anche alla vita in barca insieme ad Andrea. Vivere in un ambiente come questo ti costringe a lavorare profondamente su te stesso, e non mi riferisco agli spazi stretti. Sei obbligato, letteralmente, a lavorare sulla tolleranza, sull’ordine, sul dialogo. Sulla pazienza. Prima di tutto con te stesso, in secondo luogo con l’altra persona, perché non può esistere dialogo se noi per primi non siamo in grado di comunicare alle orecchie più testarde di tutte, le nostre. A rinfrescare questi pensieri vi è incorniciato un mare così azzurro che sembra di trovarsi in piscina. Due passi in spiaggia, poi pranzetto colorato (dove ci sono verdure colorate giungono vitamine e nutrienti diversi). A concludere la giornata un pontile deserto, che porta ancora le centinaia di impronte di altrettanti turisti, ormai andati. Di giorno la spiaggia è di tutti, di sera il tramonto appartiene a noi, solitari in questa baia selvaggia, pittori verbali di un viaggio sconfinato. Camilla
