Race 2 - Day 22: EMT Ambassador Dan Monk crosses the Equator
EMT Ambassador Dan Monk crossed the equator at 15.43 UTC yesterday (Sunday) in a email from the boat Dan described the experience.
"I crossed the equator at 15:43 on Jamaica, its a big stepping stone in the world of sailing. i crossed it at a price of being covered in what we call-the slops bucket, it consists of days old food and manky bilge water! this is tradition to be welcomed in the arms of Neptune the god of the oceans.i also gave Neptune a present to say thank you for keeping me safe,and to show my respect!.The present i gave was a book written by Ellen someone who is an inspiration to me, an awesome sailor,a nd a great person.Ellen must be a good friend of Neptune by now,so Neptune enjoy the read!!"
