Update day 6: Seas are calmer and NE wind is holding. We sailed well last night. Personally managed to get some sleep once the rolling subsided (I like a gentle roll but, lets say, a sleeping bag sliding around on the deck and cold winds and noise of rigging angrily fluttering is not conducive to sleep). Today we should cross 1/3 of the distance but hope incoming westerly wind is gentle and does not blow us again off course.

This video from day 4 will give a sense of how it feels to be manning the steering oars while the ship is pitching and rolling. Video credits: Abhishek Magar

Tips in case you are ever driving in freezing conditions without a window. Wear the heaviest available jacket. Put the heater blower on full blast. Then play Mongolian throat rock at the highest volume that your wife will tolerate …… just awesome fun

Sleeping on the deck of INSV Kaundinya. There are no lights except the mandatory ones to warn other ships, but eyes adjust to moonlight (plus we have headlamps).

Day 12 update. After a period of lull, winds picked up last night and we made good progress with both waves and wind in our favour till mid-may today. One can see where the saying "fair winds and following seas" comes from. We are now almost 2/3 of the voyage but a local weather system has again given us mixed winds - not sure how long it will last. 1/n

This is how it looks off the sides as the ships cuts through the waves. As viewers can see, it is a very small ship (21m) and actual usable area on deck is the size two small rooms, if that, for 18 people...... 2/n

Note how the planks are shaped in the traditional way. They are steamed for hours and then quickly shaped while they are still warm using weights and levers. Babu Sankaran does this purely by eye without any measures. Even a small error means that the whole effort is wasted. 2/2
