Peejay - Log - Day 5 Margery Attacked

The night was dark after the moon had set and Barrie and Margery were on the 0400 to 0800 watch. The wind was gusting 25 knots and Peejay was hammering along. Suddenly Margery felt a blow between her shoulder blades. Barrie was looking the other way and clearly hadn't seen the incident. The rest of the crew were all asleep down below and were no help. She looked around but could not see who had struck her. What should she do? Who else was on board?

First light revealed all as her attacker was found hiding by the steering wheel. A squid had taken leave of both its senses and its natural environment and decided to have a go at flying. A bit of advice squid - you have to perfect your landing a bit better. Tyara is now dragging him behind the boat as tuna bait. The woman has no mercy. I doubt if the squid had that in mind for his watery re-entry.

25% of the distance completed in 5 days - skipper had a shower to celebrate.
