Another two fish yesterday, Wahoo and another Mahi.
All of them so far are about 2 foot long. Good eating but small. Bad
squalls last night, the worst one hit us just at daylight luckily, we had
an unintentional gybe with the main sail tied back and the jib poled out on the
spinnaker pole. The short of it was that we stalled facing the wind and waves
with sails stuck in the wrong direction. A busy start to the day but we are
plodding along once again.
Oh also beat Noi 3 out of 3 games of backgammon for
the first time since leaving Galapagos, thought it was worth a
mention.
