Pearl at 9 months old is in full crawling/standing mode as she explores every nook and cranny on the boat. Time to be vigilant to keep her safe.
Down below she can easily climb in and out of the berths, over the beams, and through the escape hatch into the transom where the pilots are mounted. High danger in the galley now that she can pull herself up to the stove. The companionway steps are also a big hazard as she regularly attempts to climb up and out solo. Also time to keep an eye on all the switches down low and within reach of her little hands. Up above it's a full time harness to keep her from crawling up on the side decks where we have life lines but no netting up.
It's wonderful and brings back memories of Raivo at the same age when we first moved onto the boat but much less stressful now with two years' experience living aboard with kids.
