Jambo - Becalmed



After a cracking start we sailed into a hole-nothing so we tried our hand at fishing and nick caught a 20 pound Mahi Mahi but failed to land it as it bit through the line just as Tom was about to gaff it on board - must rig up the wire trace next time. They are spectacularly coloured fish all greens blue and yellows and I am told they are good to eat but loose their colour once killed very light winds this afternoon so we are trying to head for the NW corner of the Cap Verdes,  but the forecast for the next 48 hours is very unhelpful.Looks like a bit of a slog for the next few days

To add to our issues we have found a small water leak in the engine cooling system which should not be a problem if the wind picks up and we can use the tow generator. we also have the Panda generator to help us with charging our batteries so we have a back up

The fruit and vegetables are ripening fast so we are having a healthy diet

thats it for now
