meal time


That's a one-gallon bag holding most of the food for one day.  What you can see are dried fruits - mango and cranberries, italian canned tuna, and a mixture of cashews nuts, wasabi peas and pumpkin seeds.  What you can't see are three small plastic cups of fruit in syrup (one each for breakfast, lunch and dinner) and a breakfast bar.  Some bags have cheese crackers in them, others have beef jerky.  There are 16 bags in all and they will be stored under the thwart.  Freeze dried dinners, a mixture of New Zealand meals, courtesy of Webb and Graeme, and US freeze dried dinners, are stored in a watertight duffel that will be bungee'd up forward in SPARTINA.  There will also be some fresh fruit - apples, bananas and oranges - in the netting up under the foredeck.  I will not go hungry.
