The universe has conspired once again to provide
the ideal conditions for a beach party, warm sunny and no wind, which would
be great if we were near a beach and not on "Happy Cat" with 175 miles
to go. So here we are motoring in a lazy sea for the second day. On my night
watches I have been thinking about Chris Columbus and his journey across the
Atlantic, story goes after many days at sea, he woke up like me this
morning, had a bowl of cereal and fruit , checked his Raymarine
and muttered to himself ..."Must be close to the edge soon".. (or
something like that) But one day he did wake up and did see land and the
world changed forever. One more thing...Mr. C had it good, these trade
vwinds are amazing, blowing constantly for weeks on end, he just had to sit in
the trade winds until he banged into something and he didn't have to do night
watch as there were no other boats out here!!
BTW Caught a Tuna and Spanish Mackerel yesterday
also and today feels like it will the hottest yet, its only mid-morning and its
already 33 Deg... time for a beach party
