Update

Hey folks,
sorry I guess it's been awhile since our last post.

The highlights thus far include two beefy Dorado's, which have handily been incorporated into curry dishes and soup by our foodie Robin. Yesterday morning we were greeted and followed by one or two pilot whales which we could hear singing through the hull of the boat. At first, not having seen them and not sure what it was coming from it freaked me out a bit, and then when Jimmy showed that he could produce the same sound with by whistling even more. Now I hear it all the time and am never sure if it's whales or our Skipper. An albatross also swooped and glided overhead today, and we found numerous flying fish and a type of jelly fish the takes to the air off of waves and glides on a parachute like apendage, all on our deck.

We had a fast day today switching to the #3 and close reaching at 9-10kts on a TWA of 89 degrees. Now the wind has backed of a little and we are just settling in to our evening routine of shifts. I get the first one w/ no moon, then Robin at 10, and Jimmy at 12... then back to me. DMB help set the mood.

It will be very sweet to smell the land again, and see some green hues for a change. Soon after I'm sure i'll want to be back out here.

Fun Factor 5000 still pegged at 11.
