Day 9!

Hello from the Sigsbee! Today has been another amazing day! We’re all so disappointed that the trip has to end. Today we woke up nice and early (at 4:30 am) and went crabbing! We all took turns trying to catch the crabs, and we were able to catch quite a few. Once we were finished, we had the crabs cooked, and then we ate them on the boat! Here’s some photos of us catching and eating the crabs.

We also participated in the Skipjack races, which are games about the boat and sailing. This is an awesome opportunity to demonstrate everything we’ve learned.

Overall, this trip was amazing! Everyone learned so much and had a ton of fun! Here we are in front of the Sigsbee!

Day 8!

Hello again! Yesterday was an amazing day! We can’t believe that the trip is starting to end! Today was another long transit as we traveled from St. Michaels to Rock Hall. On the way, we fished using a trawl net and worked on our final projects. Once we got to camp, we presented our final projects. Everyone shared information they learned about the health of the bay. It was an awesome way to finish out the trip. Here we are raising the sails.
