Good morning!
Another beautiful day here in paradise. Cool breeze, warm sun rising in the east.
Today begins day 4 of the YachtMaster theory course and my mind is abuzz with dayshapes and buoyage, light patterns, tides, streams, rules of the road, regional differences in colregs, zoinks! Hours spent on the charts plotting and accounting for secondary ports in reference to standard ports, heights of tides, ranges, fixes, estimated positions and it is chock a block but making square sense. All very exciting to be reviewing and refreshing my knowledge base as well as learning new concepts. The grey matter is working. Today and tomorrow left for theory to be followed by a day of assessment before jumping onto a boat for the practical application of all this wonderful knowledge with a view of keeping the boat afloat.
Capuccino is just about done with class to begin shortly. The belly is full and ready to go, now time to fill the brain!
Going to play squash for the first time this evening. What's all the buzz about!? Will report back tomorrow.
Cheers,
Jonathan
