With a smile to Jack, and a kiss to Mr Kennedy, Mrs Kennedy heads below with some others of the crew, to keep an eye on the ballast and pumps.
Wellard and the crew aloft have almost finished with the sails- and a good thing too, as the wind speed has picked up rather a lot. With any luck, they will not have to go back up into the rigging to fix or change anything-
Usually a fool's luck. Odds are, they will be. But now, they start making their way down to the deck to fasten life-lines to themselves.
