Yesterday, Paul caught a Dorado with a length of 85
cm.
After letting rigor set in, we filleted it and
fried it with salt & pepper.
Paul who didn't want to eat it initially has become
a convert and has eaten as much as the rest. Very tasty fish I can assure
you.
So the fishing interests are continuing.
Unfortunately, Paul has already lost several diving hooks. One loss was a big
hook through the head of the Dorado.
Alan has head a visit from a mermaid last night.
She was called Isobel.
Jamie saw some shooting stars this
morning.
We are making steady progress with an average speed
of 8+ knots of speed.
The forecast is winds between 15 - 20 knots with
gusts of 25.
We can hear the position of other boats and so have
an idea where we are relatively to the others.
We are surfing down on big waves at the
moment.
Skipper has the wheel in hand, Paul is making
sandwiches, Jamie is reading his autobiography of Brian Clough.
We do enjoy getting e-mails from friends &
family at the home front.
The night watch was uneventfull wih no ships in
view.
Paul was visited by a pod of dolphins at night,
they where putting up a fantastic display.
With phospherous exploding like fireworks as they
played around the boat.
This is the end of the blogg for today.
Cheers
