    Suggestion;
    Use the flying fish as bait. The stinker the better when it comes to bait.
    BTW, I like the way you reduce sail in ADVANCE of weather. Very smart

    • @sailingfishcake
      @sailingfishcake  Рік тому +1

      i would say around 1400 euros total for both. Its kinda difficult to tell because some months we used more than the previous month. I would say its very possible to do it cheaper depending not much big stuff breaking down onboard.

      @@sailingfishcake I have been sailing professionally for 40 years. My wife - a doctor - often accompanies me. She gives her own seasickness remedy - it's Phenergan, (promethazine) an over the counter anti-histamine which is great for nausea and motion sickness. It makes you a little drowsy so take a caffeine tablet with it, or just drink a strong coffee with each Phenergan. I use the smallest dose I can buy, usually 10mg and that's sufficient for 6 hours for me a 95kg old man. No side effects save a dry mouth for 95%+ of my crew
