Still rock and roll in a lumpy sea with force 4 to 5. Forecast is for more
of same. Getting a bit tedious but as just over 600nm to go we can put up with
it. Allden finally hooked a big tuna but it got away having bitten the lure in
half. Lunch of anchovy pizzas after a half hour search to find the
anchovies.
Were surrouded by a pod of pilot whales at dusk yday which stayed with us
for a while with occ breaching and fin waving – we waved back.
Owise surprising lack of life. V occ bird no dolphins and no fish. Moon all
but gone s so at least we can see the stars when the clouds clear
