Tara - Land Ho! Fish On!



Mon 11-11-2013. 0524 hr

All hands on deck! We've left the lights of Anegada to port and the Caribbean 1500 finish line astern!  Captain Mark pops the cork!  Glasses are raised, toasts are made.  Cheers to an amazing passage with awesome people!  Cheers to the sailing vessel TARA, without whom I'd not known the exhilaration of charging through the dark of night on a galloping thoroughbred!  Wind in my hair, spray in my face, waves crashing over the bow and a raging sea awash along the leeward rail!

Sighting Virgin Gorda amidst the clouds off port bow rallies the crew again.  Stories and laughter fill the cockpit.  Just when we think it couldn't get any better, we hear the seductive spin from our fishing pole, mahi-mahi, Fish On!
