NDS Darwin - NDS Darwin - Day 10 onboard



Day 10 onboard...

I don't know what is going on with the fish out there!! We didn't get ONE SINGLE fish. Like I seriously think there is something wrong with them!!! We caught one little mahi mahi today, but it got free after 10 minutes of fighting with it. We are doing good with the food though, I went through the freezer and all the tins we had left, and I wrote 15 meals we should survive with, until we arrive. Get ready St Lucia restaurants we are going to be starving!!!

Guess who has the genoa back on place????? We do! After fighting with it for more than 4 days we finally found out what was wrong and fixed it! Everything is back in place.

The wind finally picked up a tinny little bit, 10 knots.. so the engines are taking their well deserved rest after some hours working. It's perfect for the geenaker, a pity that we lost it

We had a visit yesterday that stayed all night with us. A weird huge bird, we named it 'Gaspar', we tried to give him food but when we got close to him he flew away and never came back. :(

We are already getting used to the life one onboard and coping with each other, three of us are already used to living together but the rest no. The routine is already setting in and we are enjoying it. All together laughing and having fun..

I have one year to convince a couple of friends to do this with me, between the parties, the sunsets and the stars.. I think I can do it! ;)

No dolphins or whales.
Only cards and board games. And books and music.

Tomorrow we hope to be less than a 1000nm to go!! So less than a week hopefully!

1100 miles to go!

Out for now Lucia on NDS
