Had a good sail today with speeds of up to 9kts but
the wind has now died on us and it looks like we won't be doing much
sailing tonight.
The last 3 sticks of our dried fish biltong
have fallen overboard just as they were nearly ready, much to the the delight of
I'm sure most of the crew. Will have to do some fishing tomorrow, will keep you
posted on how that goes.
Clive
Clive dried some of the large Dorada we caught to
make a weird South African delicacy called biltong
This entails salting fish fillets to take the
moisture out, then hanging them out in the sun during the day bringing them in
at night so they don't get damp after 4 days you have the salty very tough fish
leather that only Clive could enjoy eating.
But as they suspiciously fell overboard maybe he is
not as keen as he says!!
