Coyote 2 - Our First Days At Sea - Hello :)
Hello Family and Friends from the band of international adventurers on
Coyote 2. After two lumpy days heading west, we spent much of yesterday
making our way south, surfing our way towards the Cape Verde Islands – or away
from a depression in the north – take your pick. Last night we turned west
again and are enjoying sunny trade wind sailing today. We’re all having a
great time, despite some initial sea sickness (gotta love the patch).
We’ve seen dolphins, had a salon session at Poseidon's Hairdressers, and have
been blessed with beautiful full moon sails (its bright spotlight has shone on a
few of us ‘closing our eyes for a second’ during our night watches). And,
we have just caught our first fish – a small tuna who is happily back in the
sea. Laughter & smiles rule the days and we are all becoming better
downwind sailors under Matt’s fantastic tutelage. Happy days.
