Again...not much to report. We had rain squalls with minimal enhanced winds all yesterday and last night precluding the use of Big Blue so our boat speed has basically sucked. Additionally the wind would shift by as much as 40 degrees with each passing squall so we were kept very busy going nowhere.
We downloaded the weather again and it looks like we are in for days of light to non-existent winds. So much for the trade winds! We did manage to set Blue again today and have our sun canopies up because the sun is really baking today. We were actually kind of chilly yesterday.
Kim cooked half the fish yesterday. She is going to write an entire blog about cooking so I will spare you the details of my opinion other than to ask Uncle Ted to formally consider setting up an air drop of his excellent fish rub? We are pretty sure that we are the only boat out here so you can't miss!
