Mad Fish - Rolling Along



Our luck changed yesterday as we went faster and faster under our old ragged spinnaker when the fishing line went. A quick snuff of the kite and a round up was proceeded by a monumental battle that we won against a Dorado! We now have stopped fishing as we have enough fish to last until we reach Bermuda.

We dowsed the spinnaker at around 1630 yesterday as our speeds were approaching double figures and we don't want to blow out another kite. The wind built nicely to 30 knots overnight. Unfortunatly at around midnight we took a rogue wave that flooded the cockpit and also Ethan's cabin as his window was open. The poor boy ended up with about two gallons of seawater over him and his bedding and his dvd player which may be dead now. This is taking some clearing up and so we are very tired this morning and decided to keep the spinnaker in the bag. For now.

302 miles to go.....
