Widago - Daze 1-3: Adjusting



All is quiet and well on WIDAGO - which is unusual considering there are four kids aboard. I'm up now on my third night of mid-watches. Beautiful stars and fun blips to watch on the chart plotter. Widago is finding a nice groove of 8-9 kts in 16-18 kts of AWS, with favorable seas.



First day brought much excitement as we caught & released a beautiful 175# blue marlin - a first for Widago. Thank goodness it wasn't anything edible, as I am just now able to contemplate food.



Second day included many naps, but no fishing as Skipper wanted to make up for slow start and previous day's fishing detour. Kids were content to play a little chess, and even some homework was observed being completed.



It's really been comforting to know our rally companions are looking out for us. Thanks again to Net controllers as well for keeping us informed, as well as entertained.
