Hi, we are now half way to the Canaries. Last night the wind died, so been
motoring for the last 8 hours. Pretty boring but watches still need to be
done. We caught another fish yesterday, but not as exciting as the marlin.
Meg has been doing her watches well and it helps, last night she woke me up
as there were tunny nets out. They had them lit, but not accurately, so the
keel hooked one! Luckily Meg killed the engine quickly and called me so not
stuck on the prop just on the keel. We got a knife and cut it loose, so no
mid atlantic swiming for me.
Vic has been catching up on school work and the kids are getting better at
learning while sailing.
Hope all is well
