We are off to a great start with wind speed up to 20 knots, leaving us halfway to Ascension in 48 hours. We have just over taken a French schooner that we meet up with in St. Helena that left 14 hours before us. Maybe they saw the “Jolly Roger” and thought they were to be attacked and pillaged? Fishing is looking up; we lost a big one (hook and all) but managed to catch a nice size Dorado shortly afterwards. So I guess its Dorado on the menu tonight. Last night was our first Atlantic rain shower. Shorts and T-Shirts is the dress code even at night. Looking forward to seeing the giant turtles of Ascension and snorkelling off the reefs!!
