Location: Underway
Day 6 was an exciting day as we began our 18-hour voyage to Saba! After clearing customs and bringing fresh food onboard, we were underway. Fun fact: Saba is a territory of the Netherlands.
It wasnt long in the journey until the crew started dropping like flies. The waves that normally lull us to sleep were tripled in size, and nearly everyone experienced some degree of seasickness some more than others.
During the passage, we moved from our one-person, one-hour nightly watch shift to teams of three for three hours. We wore our safety vests and had to clip onto hard surfaces as we moved about the boat in case we fell inluckily, no one did! It made for quite an interesting night of sleep, haha.
But we awoke to the most incredible sunrise with orange clouds, dolphins, and a double rainbow.
