Cloudy Bay - 2 Dec: Gennie, sun and an even bigger fish



We are still sailing strong :D All through the night, not fast and not so stable either. With the morning the sun and the wind came out and Gennie (as we call the gennaker now) is loving it! She is pulling us like a real hero.

The whole day has been sunny and super warm. We all have been lazy laying around, reading, eating and napping in the shade. Just another nice day out at the wide open ocean. And then while preparing dinner, the fishing line went ppfffrrrrrrrr... The fish was putting up a decent fight and as it comes closer to the boat we can see it’s a beautiful big Mahi-mahi. It’s swimming just below the surface from left to right in all its blue/green yellow glory! As we hook it and pull it on board, it starts to change color :o The yellow disappears and the blue is getting more pronounced at the top. Then dark stripes appear and later the yellow/green comes back... It was bigger than our previous one with over 1m from head to tail! So, a small alteration to the menu and some more fish tomorrow and the day after.

And once again, sailing towards a lovely sunset with some cozy jazzy tunes on the background. Absolutely love it!
