Day 10, 2nd December.
 
Day 10 already! Where have the days gone? It seems only yesterday we left Las Palmas with the crowds gathered on the shore and the chaotic start line! Time really has flown by.
 
Once again Scutchy boy has answered his critics. Several members of the crew were beginning to doubt him, claiming that the first fish was down to pure luck, but, at 1306 today we had our second catch! Pulled on board with Scutchy screaming out "We nailed him!!!"
 
Ollie hit hygiene mode today, cleaning all of his clothes, his sleeping bag, even himself!! Don't tell his mother as she will start to expect this on a regular basis!
 
Celebrity chef Jamie has taken the day off, and so the crew are preparing themselves for the finest beans on toast they are likely to eat, as Ollie enters the galley!
 
Mike continues to find things to tinker with about the boat, cleaning this and adjusting that, a skippers day is never over.
Whilst Cat continues her life of luxury sunning herself on the aft-deck!
 
All is well onboard as we edge ever closer to St.Lucia with the cocktails continuing to flow!
