Skyelark of London - Day 12



A bit of excitement on the fishing front - we had hooked yet another small to medium Dorado and had iust almost landed, when out of the deep came a big dark blue monster from the deep- we are pretty much agreed it was a marlin- he took our whole fish clean of the line, leaving us some nice gouges on our fishing line. Then , a while later we had a big hit on the fishing rod- this was a BIG fish the way the line raced out- unfortunately, it was indeed  too big for our line - the first time we have experienced a broken line! Now it was getting boring- we later hooked a really nice sized wahoo- which was quickly and expertly dispatched by first mate Richard. We have finally now come into the famed TRADE WINDS! we are now enjoying 18- 20 plus knots of wind, and its actually pushing us directly towards St Lucia. We have logged 100 miles in the last 12 hours- so we are looking good.
