Midnight Day 2 - 34:29.33N 8:02.64W
Day 2 was a great day, I finally caught a fish, as you can
see I am pretty happy with it, and it only took a few minutes before its guts
were thrown overboard and I had put a couple of fish stakes on the BBQ.
The weather was good, a fresh 15 Knots of wind and blue
sky’s
The previous nights sleep was OK as Fi and I took turns of
being on watch. We changed every 2 or so hours. It is actually very hard work
keeping watch when there are a lot of large boats around.
Special comments by Fiona: My
favorite part of the day is watching the sun rise. All of my fears of sea
monsters from the night before are diminished. It was a very pleasant second
day, especially as we had a school
of Dolphins play with us
for a while. And the fish Ben caught, my god it was huge! In true Ben style
he gutted it and filleted it straight away and whacked it on the BBQ. There
was so much fish that we had a little snack of it straight away and the rest we
refrigerated for our evening meal. It was one of the nicest fish I’ve ever
tasted!
