Spirit of Lusitania - Log Day 10 - 29 November



Log Day 10 - 29 November

We have been motoring for 24 hours now, with virtually no wind anywhere. We spent almost two days struggling to make headway with 3-5 knots of wind, and ended up heading north more than west. On the positive side, the nights have been spectacular, with star-studded skies that are simply breath-taking, and the days have been sunny and hot. Then just as we were sitting down to a nice lunch in the cockpit…the fishing rod started screaming loudly, peeling off line at a fast clip. The crew all jumped into action, one slowing the boat, one pulling in the second fishing line, one on the rod, and another getting the swim platform down and ready (where we land the fish). After a bit of a battle, we had a really nice sized Mahi Mahi on the afterdeck - a terrific treat for our dinner this evening! The crew of Spirit of Lusitania are getting along so well, it is like we have all been lifelong friends.
