Whale (again!)
Blog by Lovis H. FALKEN Apprentice | Day 11 of the trip from Hawaii to Prince Rupert. This day started as misty as it ended. But out of the blue (actually the white) came a surprise. Another whale! It was alone and we only saw it twice before it returned back into the deep, but still! We think it was a humpback and that it was alone.
Day 11 of the trip from Hawaii to Prince Rupert. This day started as misty as it ended. But out of the blue (actually the white) came a surprise—another whale! It was alone and we only saw it twice before it returned back into the deep, but still! We think it was a humpback and that it was alone. We are also changing to Prince Rupert time, one hour at a time, and today I was on the “lucky watch” that only had a two-hour shift (just joking, but the real win is not having your rest cut). To end the day, we were treated to a “pudding,” which apparently is a dessert that is not necessarily pudding. Today it was, in fact, a blueberry crumble pie. The “pudding” was amazing—thanks, Mary!

Sail Training!
By Alex. FALKEN Skipper | After a windless night drifting between Santa Catalina and San Clemente Islands, we finally managed to find the wind! As soon as the breeze filled in, Adam had just wrapped up his great lesson on boat-keeping and manuals,

Sail Training!
By Alex. FALKEN Skipper | Yesterday we left Ensenada at around 08:30 in the morning. It was sunny and you could barely feel any wind in your face. We went through the process of hoisting sails and straight away we dived into reefing drills followed by tacking. After 6 reefs and 12 tacks, we decided to settle into the watch system and embrace the night.
