Winds lower and more settled today but Blue Jade is still skipping along at 6 kts or so and we ran up about 130 nm yesterday and crossed the 45W meridian today which felt good!

We are now on GMT-3 hrs boat time, one more change left as Martinique is -4 hrs.

Ran out of fish a couple of days ago so very pleased to land a lovely 15lb Bull (male) Mahi Mahi today which put up quite a fight. Very pleased that the research and work to assemble a good ocean fishing kit is paying off. No more fishing for a couple of days as we are only catching what we can reasonably eat.

All fit and well and getting more used to the downwind swaying and so sleeping better.

Love to all our family and friends.
