2 hour furl and coil

Brooke woke me up telling me there was hot water for tea if I wanted some and that they had a very eventful watch. Zach had seen some flares go off the stern, woke Robin to ask what they should do, in the end the furled everything and motored towards the direction of the flares. They also flashed the deck lights to try and signal to them. After an hour they gave up and got back on course.

We ended up having to help furl what they had recently just set because Peter wanted to motor. We spent the first two hours of our watch furling and then coiling down, great way to make things go by pretty fast.

Was a very calm night, had some good talks with Peter back at the helm, learned a lot about how much this industry pays. Not a whole lot, but defiantly get a licenses so that you can be paid more, Bounty just sucks on pay, there are others that are better.
