We’re currently off the Oregon (northern) coast. Fun night last night for our first over-nighter–plenty of wind and swell. Sailed throughout the night with single reefed main, partially furled genoa, and single reefed mizzen. Morning brought lighter winds so we’ve been motoring most of the day. Our shift schedule is working well. All in all we’re making good progress each day. I just put a hand line out so will see if we catch our dinner!
Right after writing the above and before sending, Mike at the helm yells FISH ON! We pulled in a nice 12 lb Tuna. Risto and I cleaned the meat off and Scott and Risto are cooking away right now. So…. fresh Tuna for dinner!!
