LOCKDOWN on 42 feet - What we do when there's NOTHING to do [EP 88] | Sailing Millennial Falcon

In this episode, the reality of the situation begins to set in as we adapt to life on lockdown. After our brief shakeout sail around to St George just outside of Port Louis in Grenada we very quickly begin to feel that we may have made a poor choice for a place to spend our lockdown as the rolling swell began to get the better of us. To remedy this we decided to quickly deploy a stern anchor to swing the boat into the swell and ease the rolling. This turned into a mammoth three and a half-hour exercise with varying degrees of success. We ended up using a bridle on the main anchor to achieve the desired effect. Fortunately for us all, it worked quite well and we all managed to get some sleep. In an attempt to boost morale we hosted the first of what we hope will be many Millennial Falcon Poker tournaments. The following morning we received an unpleasant visit from the coast guard grilling us about our arrival dates. Khiara and Sean, kept busy by getting stuck into some boat jobs, specifically, re-bedding and sealing some windows with brutal tape which were long overdue.
