Pendragon - caught another Dorado today

Pendragon is currently just about ready to exit the Old Bahama Channel. Not much wind, but we are having a beautiful day just the same. The boat is operating well, and to date, we have motored 86 hours. We've had some wonderful sailing as well...of the beam and off the beam. Ian (AKA, the Slayer) caught another Dorado today. Pink Squid, a light weight, 6 knots of boat speed...and bang.....hit again. Another night of Mahi Mahi Tacos!!!! She was 41 inches long, 28 pounds......8 pounds are in our reefer!All is well......37 hours out of Key West.ScottS/V Pendragon. read more...
