On the starboard side of the aft Wiebe shouts &#8216;pull the throat halyard!&#8217;, we wait until it&#8217;s our turn, &#8216;pull the peak halyard!&#8217; we hear. \u00a0That&#8217;s us and we start pulling and taking in slack as fast as we can. With a couple more meters to hoist Jan steps in and helps to raise the peak to its final point. Twenty minutes later we&#8217;ve reefed the main sail and Wiebe ends the session with a &#8216;good job everyone&#8217;. One week at sea and slowly I&#8217;m getting to know the different lines and manouevres, I start to understand the language and I&#8217;m getting used to the rhythm of the watches. It&#8217;s a nice feeling to work together when setting the sails or just to sit and talk with each other on the deck. There have been great moments which I can almost not belief where I am. For example when together with Alex I get on the bowsprit to unpack the sails, or when I&#8217;m up in the schrouds, holding the ropes as the ship moves forward and rolls on the waves, high above the water with a great view on the AVONTUUR and the ocean. One of my concerns previous to getting on board was that I would be out of place on the ship, that I would be a stranger in the midst of people who have worked for so long building not only the ship but giving shape to the project as a whole. However the group of volunteers and crew have created a welcoming environment for everyone. It feels good to be part of the AVONTUUR and with small things I try to contribute to the wellbeing of the ship and her people.<\/p>\n<h4><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/P1050386-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"p1050386\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/timbercoast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/P1050231-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"p1050231\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weblog Ernesto Lazo Lopez (Trainee) With two hands I&#8217;m holding the line, looking at Lotte who&#8217;s holding it on the other side of the pin and together we wait for&#8230;<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">  &#8220;Pull the peak halyard!&#8221;
