Eowyn is a 40ft Hallberg-Rassy currently sailing in the World ARC event and is on passage towards Tahiti at the moment with Graham Payne and Mike Birch on board. Before departing on this leg of her world tour, her last post describes Eowyn's approach to cooking on board."We take it in turns to cook. Our styles are different but the common denominators are garlic, onion and ginger. Our most important 'British' ingredient is gravy and we are getting through the Bisto rapidly, onion gravy being the favourite. Propane is in short supply as we may not get our bottles filled until the end of April, so we must always economise and avoid recipes which use a lot of gas. Of course, bread is made in an electric breadmaker and we use the Remoska electric cooker for cake baking. We have to run the engine for these devices and the watermaker so diesel is another precious resource to conserve along with the propane and Bisto."
Wonder if they've caught any fish yet?
