FISH ON!!

Tuesday, January 27, 1245 EST, 1745 UTC
N 12* 15.3'
W 077* 02.7'
speed 6kts
course 230* magnetic

finally we caught a fish!
Steven reeled in a 30" Dorado (Mahi Mahi)
then came the Pau Hana circus:
fish flopping, us staggering about, huge mess everywhere.
finally we got it filleted and in the freezer.
Now, everything is cleaned up and...
More fish!
I brought in a 9 lb? tuna, caught on a lure I made from a granola bar wrapper and a zip tie.
repeat circus described above.

now we're cooking the sushi rice and trying to find the wasabi.

pictures to follow when we get to an internet connection.

sailing wise, we are sailing down wind and with the waves in fine style.

We may arrive at the San Blas Islands as early as tomorrow afternoon!
