Nadia and Sergi were last-minute crews for Antarctica. Young people from Barcelona traveling in South America. They were funny and congenial, so welcome aboard and we set sails.
Ups! They were Smokers. They smoked almost continuously, outside of course but as a result their clothes and the cabin were stinking of tobacco.
They also Drank a lot. They stored a lot of booze in their cabin and when it was over, they helped themselves directly in the reserve of the boat.
When I found Sergi and another crew completely drunk on the deck at 2:30 in the morning in Antarctica, there was a big clash.
And Nadia ran out of supplies. She started to roll her cigarettes in cardboard or toilet paper. As a result, she transformed into a spoiled brat, breaking on purpose the safety rules. More clashes.
And things went even worse. They had not realized that the trip ended in Puerto Williams, Chili, and not in Ushuaia, Argentina, as they wanted.
Indeed we told them so before we started, but they were probably drunk or smoked and they did not care.
They started to rant about that, and about the price of the ferry Puerto Williams- Ushuaia. Nadia even tried to coerce me to bring them back to Ushuaia.
What they did afterwards is disgusting. For the first time ever, a few hundredth US$ disappeared from the boat, as well as some clothing (Sergi´s size). I cross-checked carefully and there is no doubt: Nadia and Sergi were the thieves.
They went to Antarctica for a minimal fee (last minute crew just help cover the expenses), we lent them our own warm clothes, etc. Grateful people.
And after stealing, they did even worse, it was vile and despicable. They will be exposed in the next post, with proofs.
