Yesterday was quite an entertaining day.

 

After breakfast we have spotted a whale jumping and playing around off our port bow. We adjusted course to have a closer look. As we slowed down to a drift in the area the whale slashed his tale multiple times on the surface, and we took it as a nice Hello! Shortly after we set sail again some dolphins came for a very quick visit.

 

Mid-morning the reel went off and Ruan caught a very nice size Mahi-Mahi. He sure made Ruan work for it as it made a second run.

 

We have been motor sailing for the last 24hrs and is expecting the winds a bit later this evening at about 12-16kts.

So far, we have knocked off about 750nm and much more to go!

 

We had a clock change today, moving forward 1hr. Currently -3 GMT.

 

Hope everyone has a good week ahead.

 

Regards.
