Things no one tells you about overnight sailing for the first time:
- driving in the dark is like driving over a minefield with how many fucking crab and lobster cages there are out here
- until you get your sea legs, there’s no pissing. you simply cannot piss until your body recognizes itself as one with the boat
- cooking on a gas stove/oven from the 70s with choppy waves beneath you is not fun
- cooking generally is not fun
- in fact, being below deck at all is not fun. I’d rather weather the storm. this is why I slept above deck
- “I don’t need any entertainment during anchor watch!” you are going to fall asleep several times.
- the stars are fucking gorgeous
- you are not too good for Dramamine
