Of Special Interest:.
• Found several little flying fish on deck this morning.
• Alan caught a 2 ½ lb./1+ kg yellow fin tuna (a jack?) and landed it perfectly! We doused it with rum and hope to catch its brother tomorrow and have them both for lunch.
•
‘Delight of the day’: Alan for sorting out our brake (gybe preventer) and for being the only crew member to provide food and not just eat it!
