Hello Everyone. Thanks for Sailing With Us. Don't forget to go to Oceana.org and Adopt a Creature

First and Second grade students in Muncie, IN wrote and asked many questions
Here's some answers to some very good questions. The boat is 31 ft and made of fiberglass. And it has a diesel engine we use if there's no wind for sailingg
We haven't gotten seasick. We do have medicine for that. But sosometimes you jist have to sleep to get over it. If we got hurt we have a first aid kit. We also have a radio and could CALL THE Coast Guaed for help
It"s about 560 miles yo Charleston. Anmd we go about 7 miles an hour (kind of slow)
The boat could tip over but not likely. There's a lot of weight in th bottom$ of the boas ( the keel) that keeps it safe
Usually the water is calm in the morning and rougher in the afternoon. Usually more windy in the afternoon.
We leave early each morning. Around 6 30
It's chilly on the water. Have a sweatshirt on today
If GPS stops we have marine charts and a compass. Marine charts are like road maps or mapquest
If we get stuck on an island we'll call you on our cell phones!!
