138 miles travelled in last 24 hours - mix of
sail & motor. Winds are light and on the nose. Just crossed the
200 to go mark at 08.40 (1140Z)
Caught a big Dorado yesterday - 10lbs.
Unfortuntately, the rusty hook let us down at the last moment and it got away as
we tried to haul on board. Oh well, some gin saved for our sundowners
tomorrow night (should we arrive!). Still had fish for dinner - last
stocks in freezer eaten last night.
A quiet day yesterday. Magic dawn joined by
dolphins. Hot on deck so lots of taking it slow. Cloudy this morning
and expecting rain later this afternoon for a few hours. No one
particularly happy about this.
