New crew member for Silverminken

This latest crew member didn't have any documented experience, but I am told he likes water so maybe the foredeck is the place for him. He follows orders, but doesn't really stay in one place for very long. Also, the different sounds the boat make seem unusual to him, so I don't know if he has a lot of suggestions for tuning the boat or if he is just leading us to believe he can do a good job. Anyway, the first trip went well, but I can't really remember if he actually helped in any way or just walked around. :) I'll try getting him to hook up the spinnaker next time, to see if he gets it right.
