Our luck has turned. We not only entered the trade winds with their ideal winds, we caught our first fish. A 15-20lb Dolphin, AKA Mahi Mahi or Dorado. We used a hand line with an artificial squid type lure that was perfect for the overcast day. Peter pulled and excellent gaff shot. We had some for lunch and will fry some for dinner to go along side Ellis Stansel rice, zucchini Provencal & glazed apple crepes. Courtney’s keeping us all well fed to be sure.

 

 

Tonight we are also celebrating the 1000 mile mark. We’re breaking out our first bottle of wine for the occasion. This is a dry trip (well almost dry). Our next bottle will be bubbly when we cross the equator in a week or so.

 

 

Bob & Courtney
