Flying fish are getting bolder one hit Eric in the head last night , however he failed to tell the tale as we found him dead on deck in the morning,
 
 
First boat seen in nearly 3 days. We appeared to stalked her for most of the day they she disappeared around mid day. When we download the ARC fleet positions later we will find out who she was. Still able to fly Kite, but it has not been plain sailing today as a few passing squalls have meant we have run it up and down 3 times.  The spinnaker is now seeing a lot of use so we have to be mindful of checking the wear in the Halyards. The port side guy nearly let go to day.
 
.
We are getting good at this fishing game caught another Dorada, with the lucky squid. He has 3 kills to his name now, the other 5 lures have none.
