Jubilate Mare - Strange things going on..




After our discovery we are very confused and also a bit upset. Things get out of hand and I really hope we find a solution for this world problem before we get to the Azores. After knowing what we know, Martin started drinking all the Gin and tonic, Bruno ate all the noodles and biscuits, Pete and Bee locked themselves in a cabin with a crossword puzzle, Kieron’s flying kangaroo stopped smiling and I wonder how we are going to manage the last four days.

The sailing is perfect and with a moderate sea and good breeze we smoothly slide through the waves with an average speed of 7 knots. Things seem normal, but there’s something we can’t figure out..

After over 2130 miles from Nanny Cay, we can’t ignore it anymore. We tried everything; searched with a GoPro camera, varied the speed from 3 till 9 knots, tried different colourful lures, even sang to them at happy hour, but the sad conclusion is: there is no fish in the sea. There are a billon Portugese man of war, but all other fish disappeared. There must be a really good party in the Pacific or so..

Now, this is why we would like to add a new category to the fishing competition. One bottle of champagne for the boat that doesn’t catch a fish in 3200 miles.

Can we please do that ARC yellow shirts?
