Derry, on Jackamy, provides today's report. They all seem to be having good sailing days at the moment. They are covering lots of miles with the wind behind them, but it is a bit lumpy.
Saturday 21st November.
We had an incident in the night......a BOB! Similar to a man overboard but it was a bbq overboard! It managed to work it's way out of the housing that connected it to the guard rail. We were busy star gazing when we heard a loud plop! Oops!
Then later in the day there was another plop. Paul was making an adjustment to the sail when his toggle made an acrobatic escape over the side. He wasn't too pleased! The only thing that cheered him up was thinking how he managed to buy it for 14 euros in Lanzarote instead of 68 euros in Gibraltar.
We had a good day sailing. We're still surfing on the waves and we've got a new top speed of 10.3 knots! Amy caught her first fish, a Mahi Mahi so she's pleased with herself. It was quickly gutted and put in the fridge ready for eating for dinner.
Must dash, the sun is calling!
