Neal sleeps on watch all the time. Of course, his boat never leaves the
mooring, so it's not a big deal that he's violating the rules.

Just curious, Who here has slept on the wheel/tiller watch?

Was it planned sleep?

Joe


I have snoozed while on watch but not at the helm.
We were 3 handed, one below sleeping and two on deck at all times.
I'd finished a 2 hour stint on the tiller and was 2nd man in the
cockpit for the next 2 hours, wee small hours.
5th day at sea in never less than 30kts in a 32' trimaran.
It was expected that you snoozed when you could, but stayed within
kicking distance of the helm.


Oz1...of the 3 twins.

I welcome you to crackerbox palace,We've been expecting you.
