A Tale of Two Seas – which one would you rather be in?

Desolation Sound, one of the most beautiful places on earth is just at our backyard. You don’t have to go far. Paradise is here!
Ah, these private and secluded warm pools at Tenedos Bay are so refreshing on a hot summer day. Perfect little spot for bathing. This could easily compete with any warm tropical place. Surprisingly, not many people know about this spot.

When you’re out sailing, sooner or later, there comes the time when a halyard gets stuck up in the mast, or something up the mast needs repairing, and someone has to go up. Unless you’re a monkey and can get up the mast barefooted, chances are you will need a bosun chair, and some one will need to hoist you up and down.
As you can imagine, a heavy person will require a lot of pull, so the lightest person is the best candidate. Here in this video, a Delicate Balance crew member was volunteered to go up the mast. Great bosun chair training for the next Vic Maui 2012 race.
