Yesterday we got a little wind assistance but not enough to turn the engine off. This morning we have been motoring into 10-13 kts of wind to get further North in search of Westerly wind.
The day started well with 3 big flying fish on deck and then got even better with a 15lb (7Kg) Mahi Mahi at 7am. Looking forward to fresh fish for dinner. The lines are back out to see what else we can catch.
The temperature is slowly cooling off and so is the sea temp.
We are all hoping for some good wind so we can increase our speed.
