In an attempt to attract something other than skipjacks, Colin has deployed
some cruise-missile-like lures which cost a fortune in the Galapagos. They
are obviously splendid bits of kit as they easily attract creatures big
enough to have little problem in breaking the 130lb test line they are
attached to. Colin is distraught as he has a bet on with Adrian from Kealoa
8 over who gets the biggest fish. Never mind, we have loads of canned tuna
in the stores to fall back on.

Some sightings of whales earlier. Big head, big dorsal fin, but yet to be
identified. I hope they're not wearing a selection of our fishing lures.

Heiki has got into the habit of doing a Titanic-style 'Kate Winslet' up at
the front of the boat each sunset. Guess who gets the part of 'Leonardo' to
make sure she doesn't fall off? It's not a complaint.

Bikini of the day - Captain America stars and stripes.
