Press on to Ibiza

As we made good progress yesterday, we decided early this morning not to go in to Gurracha but to press on to Ibiza instead, we now expect to arrive in Formentera tomorrow afternoon. Looks like we will be anchoring, as the marinas are all full.

Today has been almost completely windless, with glassy but quite swelly seas. Not much to report, no dolphins and definitely no fish !!

Two days fishing many lure changes but no fish, even though we just motored through a shoal of Tuna !

These lures apparently on the naughty step for underperforming!
