- Wizzy

I really hope to have time for Wizzy this year. But recently I had a chance to sign up as a deckhand on a 1745 fullrigged ship - a dream come true. So there has been no coding for a month.

The ship is on its way to China sometimes in 2023. I may actually sign up for some shorter leg in the Mediterranean. The ship stays there during the winter. Climbing the rig and working with sails is more fun than playing it on the Lynx. Highly recommended. And you only live once...

PS. there is 10 cannons on board too. And we shoot... Salutes. And sing sea chanties while working. All tools on board for handling sails are the same they used in the 18th century.

But we use safety harnesses as we don't want to lose 15 deckhands per trip as it used to be in the good old times...

I just got an inspiration of a sailing game for the Lynx. You could control 50 deckhands to sail the vessel from one point to another. With all the real ropes to deal with all 12 sails. Just for info you have 4 main ropes to every sail - brass, contrabrass, skot, hals. Plus 7 ropes influencing the shape of the sail and one rope to lift the raw.

 

For beginners we talk of about an hour and a half up in the rig to set up one sail...

 

The original ship had 140 crew members on board. Today we were just around 60.
