Position: 16:46.847N 61:49.366W Hi Everybody, I think the following blog entry might be best to explain in dialogue so here goes: On the way to Guadeloupe, 2 metre seas, wind on the side, Quest heeling over nicely, fishing line just gone berserk. Jack: Can you press 10 degree to starboard so I can reel this in? Hannah: Sure. Jack: Oh ****, Fin just fell overboard! Hannah: You're kidding, oh ****, no you're not! Lulu: She's far away already! Hannah: Girls, keep pointing at her the whole time. Don't lose sight of her. Lu and Du: We can see her! Jack: Get the Genoa in! I'm going to tack. Hannah: I can't remember how. Jack: The green line, winch the green line in! Hannah: Ok, I can do that! Lu and Du: She's really far away now! Hannah and Jack: Keep pointing! Jack: Oh ****, the fishing line, we have to cut it. It's going to wrap around the propellor. Hannah: I can bite through it. Ok, it's gone. Lu and Du: We've lost her! No, no there she is. She's at the back now. Jack: Ok, I'm going to put her into reverse all the way so don't let her go under the boat! Hannah: Come on, Fin, swim kid! A big wave sweeps her as she reaches the back platform. Everyone: Good girl!! Phew. Harness and lead is now on. We feel like Beverley Borth Hillbillies! Love from Quest and all of her crew xx      |
