Exocet Strike - 18-19 January 2017



Hello anyone who is reading today.
What of the Western Hemisphere then. Much the same as the eastern, moderate winds giving us good speed towards our destination of St Helena. The direction was great SE allowing us to aim slightly low of our waypoint in case the wind clocks a bit further south. We still have two reefs in but I suspect we will be down to one or even no reefs by later today. The forecast suggests less wind overnight and tomorrow.
Fish, great we caught a Mahimahi or Dolphin fish or Dorado yesterday, a beautiful fish that tastes and is a bit like Plaice or Lemon sole in texture, but if careful no bones, result. The fishing gear was out today, but no luck so far so it's Beef Pie, from Woolworth's (not like the old UK one more like M&S for all those UK readers). There are stores in South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, called Countdown there for some reason.
That's all for today folks!
