A couple of days at sea now and there's been almost no wind.
The boys are all excited about catching and barbecuing skipjack tuna but
they will get over it when we land some better fish. Leon still has command
of the galley and his unusual Chinese/Italian fusion cusine is strange but
good. A tolerance for a lot of garlic is essential.
I used the AIS in anger for the first time yesterday to call up a fishing
boat by name to see if they had nets in our way. I've not been able to use
it since then as we've not had another boat within 20 miles of us.
