without running the motor, although last night was not clever with large
4-5m rolly waves on a goose-wing so boat rocking like mad with very little
sleep, but wicked spell on the helm - bring it on!!
Boat life going OK and we're getting along fine - even managed to do the
laundry yesterday, only took us 2 hours to work out how to use the washing
machine - think we'll give that a miss from now on and wait till we get
there. The 4 x 3 hour night shifts appear to be working out well, though
we're all tired and tend to play catch-up during the day.
Fishing ain't going well, having lost 2 lots of lures, all our small line
and issues with the rod, so we're now onto our 65kg line, hunting down big
fish (marlin, skipjack etc) - had a bite early but it got away and then Kev
landed a net!
Current prediction is that we'll arrive on time, but a lot can happen in the
next couple of weeks. Not that we're racing, but we appear to be near the
front of the pack!!
Cheers,
Paul, Kev & Paul
