Ship's Log:
Another unforgetable 24hrs.Ran through the night with
main,courses and rafee making at times over ten knts.Light wind
this morning so we are motoring.Stopped at 1100hrs for a swim
break and had a very rare opportunity to swim with a group of
about ten dolphins,absolutely stunning.Shortly after our swim stop
the fish bell rang and to our delight there was a 60lb Yellow Fin
tuna on the line.After a bit of excitment Peter landed the fish
and we now have dinner.All in all not a bad day and its only
noon.Looks like Isabella by about 1900hrs today.
