Ric was so tired from last nights party, I mean
watch, he sleeped and missed the delegation of tasks meeting. Ric is now
officer in charge of rubbish, strangely he sees it as promotion!
We spinnakered into the night until the wind
dropped on Deegs watch. The poor sail gotted snuffed by Graham. God he is
ruthless.
Sailors are a supersitious lot. it is believed if
you want to catch fish you must make a sacrifice to the God of fish.
traditionally ordinary fork give up there time along the front at Cowes. The
rich can't be arsed and throw cheap watches into the sea. We were down to the
last two Rolex when we were rewarded with a fish almost as big as the Rolex
dial.
Pete was too mean to throw his watch overboard and
did the Cowes fisherman thing and was rewarded with a Tuna. O.K. it's not
massive but Pete got very excited and insisted on giving it a french kiss before
passing it to our two bra chef who turned out the most incrediable
lunch.
we saw a turtle today but he was not very
photogenic.
Piers is getting to be a real expert on the Sex ton
thing. he has come up with some fantastic positions.Frankly we can't keep
up.
well thats it for now . we hope to make landfall
tomorrow morning
