Yesterday afternoon Dragan managed to hook a marlin long enough to identify it and then it got off the hook. Soon after we entered the rain of a developing low pressure system and it rained all night and only stopped a couple of hours ago. With the rain came wind and we had 25-30 knots from behind most of that time giving us a good push along. With the wind came big swells and made for another very rolly night.
Tomorrow morning should bring us the very welcome sight of Anguilla and St Martin.
