Day 5 ..major tragedy, ran out of HP sauce.
 
Compensated for by first catch of the trip..a vicious looking Barracuda.. small but tough! ( and chewy)
 
Plan is for "Cuda Creole" for tonight's menu.
 
Winds touched low to mid 40 knots last night, not a lot of sleep what with all the noise ( and that's just Robert!)
 
We are on course for arrival in Panama tomorrow morning.
 
Deck inspection this morning : about 30 tiny flying fish ( Kamikazi species), rapidly pursued by sea birds and consequent mess.
 
Photo to follow of wonderful Parasail spinnaker, extremely steady , stopped the boat rolling and gave us 8 knots in light winds.
 
Sorry no pics as hard to send while at sea but will make up for it if we get a wif fi connection in Panama.
