Suicidal coffee pots

After breakfast sometime we hove to because the seas were really big and rolling us around, it made life in the galley that much harder. Our back up small coffee pot committed suicide, jumped it’s lashing and off the counter it went to it’s death. It was plastic on the outside and we thought that might make it last longer, but it was still lined with glass. Then while Tenely was taking down the water coolers to fill them up the other one slid off the shelf and about a gallon of water spilled on the deck. When it came to making lunch I was pretty lucky that things didn’t fly all over the place, the lid jumped the pot only twice. While at capstan a huge wave crashed over the bow and made everyone jump and later I started to slip because the deck was damp, I fell in slow motion and Chris tried to grab my hand but that was in slow motion as well.

Setting the main staysail.
Heeling.
Brooke and Richard, crazy.
