The sky offers one night magical to Kojiro, while Dalton avoids the shock against a group of whales

Kojiro Shiraishi has undergone a weekend breakage and problems in the boat. It has had to repair the greater candle and has had serious problems in the autopilots. “Saturday at night, while it inspected of the boat, I noticed strange noises in the autopilot of starboard. Eek made a constant sound like `' eek', that came from the base of the cylinder of the pilot. It was not a problem of the pilot, but rather of the carbon base where this one is mounted. If that base continued using this pilot the carbon could be broken or become broken. So I decided to change to the port pilot. But when I activated the port pilot began to act of strange way, and almost immediately the boat trasluchó of violent way.
Luckyly there were no great damages, so I lowered the candle, I stabilized the boat and I put myself to fix the pilot. The controller of the pilot was giving many different messages of error so I had to stop the boat and to work through all the process. After 30 minutes I realized of which there was a failure in the information that sent the Windex of starboard,” explained Shiraishi. The Windex is a wind-direction indicator that is united to the steering wheel. One cannot work without the other, reason why the Windex is a simple but crucial part so that the boat navegue without Kojiro must take the boat. “We have three Windex at the top of the mast, so I changed to the vertical Windex and the controller of the pilot returned to the life and began to work correctly. I completed the change to the port pilot and we put ourselves to sail again. So I spent the day yesterday repairing and I could not sail well, reason why Bernard still has moved away more.”

Kojiro, nevertheless, in spite of all the vicissitudes, has been able to enjoy one night magical watching stars: “At dusk it appeared a great comet in the sky, seemed a picture, it appeared as a red great star with a triangular shining tail. It was one night of an incredible clarity, with the Milky Route just behind the boat and the Cross of the right South to prow. There was in addition a fleeting star rain by all the sky and whenever it watched the sky he was and more shining more. Soon I watched again and was an arc in the middle of the sky with a fog curtain It was the Aurora! A mysterious green brightness in two layers, one behind the other. In the other side of the curtain of the Aurora the stars and the tail of the comet… It had never seen a similar spectacle in the sky. The full star sky, the Milky Route, the fleeting Cross of the South, stars and the comet… And everything really and in front of me… nor would have done it to Disney better. He was really fantastic.”

While Graham Dalton had an incident with whales against which almost it hits: “It was in the cover to 16 knots when I saw two whales in my way about 70 meters. It did not have time to put me to the rudder and to extinguish the autopilot so I went to the prow and I put myself to shout to alert them. I prepared myself for the shock but either they were my shouts, or that saw me, separated avoiding something that could have been very ugly,” says.
