@neauoire it snapped in half about 140nm into our 450nm sail from trinidad to curaçao… we’ve just been using the jib ever since haha @lake wow shit, that's a shame. I hope you find something down there! 🤘 Otherwise there's always lightposts update, on shipwreck plundering: we did not find a new boom… but did excavate a few months’ old wreck- found an anchor chain that is in much better shape than the one we have now. the extraction mission was an insane ordeal involving the four of us dragging the (many hundred pounds worth of) chain in chain-gang fashion across the whole island, some of us wearing backpacks loaded with chain, some of us wrapping huge amounts of it around our bodies. it looked ludicrous
[DATA EXPUNGED]
@tty the wreck was actually onshore - this is what it looked like ! was being battered by waves, moving around / partially submerged inside. my friend wore goggles while inside the boat haha |
@lake what happened to the last boom that you had?
