Sunny morning, 15 kts of wind true, 10/11kts on
deck. We are sailing along at 6.5kts.
The spinnaker went up this morning but that was
short lived. It ripped along the seam! The story repeats itself and it
seems that it will never survive an ocean passage.
The fish seem to enjoy our lures and hooks because
they have the bad habit of taking everything away. Mike and
Holger down to fabricate his own lures and hooks with wood and
pieces of colourful fabrics, and very thick wire. They are very cute. They even
have eyes! Time will tell if they work!
Perhaps fish on the menu tonight? Otherwise it will
be beef mince...
We should be half way through to the Marquises
tonight. This is a long passage!
All is well
Would love to hear from all of you!
Love
M+C
