breakfast at 08.20 and went southbound towards the next island. We had
perfect conditions in the beginning, but after a couple of hours the
rain and NE winds reached us :-(. The heaven just opened up for 20
minutes and we got soaking wet! But this weather is not like the weather
on the Norwegian coastline; 30C degrees extra helps a lot when drying up
after rain.
We got company by a bird –who preyed on the flying fish which got
frightened by our ship. After a while we observed the bird got very
interested in our fishing lines – and Thomas spotted the line was
moving: "WE GOT FISH – A TUNA"! (The 8.th fish during the journey).
We anchored 15.30 in Marigot Bay, after talking to many "boat-boys"
offering to guide us in, selling fruit & vegetables, transportation or
music (!) to the seafarers. They all were polite and accepted the
skippers clear voice saying "No, thank you!" - and – "we are using our
anchor!".
All in all a very nice day, even if a couple of the passengers (not the
tuna :-)) could feel the heavy seas for a while. The tuna is now in the
oven, being professionally cooked by Marie. We are looking forward to
taste our first fresh caught tuna ever!
