It has been a busy week. We are now fully provisioned, fuelled and prepared for our attempt at the North West Passage. The communities we are visiting along the way are small so we are set to be as self-reliant as possible. We will top up with fuel at every opportunity and hope to buy some fresh food occasionally but we are prepared to make the transit with what we have aboard. So, what does food for four people sailing through the Arctic look like and how did we figure it all out? Cans are stored in a locker under the settee If we are not in Dutch Harbour in the Aleutians by the end of September, we run a very real risk of being iced in. So we have provisioned for 100 days - just over three months. Any longer and we will be on Plan B! We are generally eating a vegetarian diet and will not be fishing along the way. So here is our list! Rice, coconut milk and a few treats are under the settee Snacks such as ramen noodles, dried fruit, nuts and soup mixes are in the sea berth Fruit
