During yesterday\u2019s afternoon we had first a decrease in windspeed down to around 10 KN for short time, then the wind came back to the 14-17 KN range. Now, Saturday morning about 0530 we have winds around 19 KN and MaRe enjoys flying with peak STW of 10 KN through the moon illuminated nightly sea.<\/p>\n
The moon started waning but still is very bright and illuminates the few alto cumulus clouds hanging decoratively scattered over the sky.<\/p>\n
The moon river, one of my favorite scenes to look at is at the leeward side. This makes the estimationof the swell hight and length a bit difficult.<\/p>\n
I eased the wind angle a bit and MaRe doesn\u2019t bang into the waves but cuts with her two hulls through them. I might ease wind angle even a bit more.<\/p>\n
Bread baking is back to normal. Somehow my sourdough starter lost its power and the new one works already. I am spoiled with good tasting bread, which I bake \u00e9 every 2-3 days since back in 2018 when my OBM bought the Japanese version of Eric Kayer\u2019s baking book for bread and more.<\/p>\n
However, in not culinarily satisfied these days. Tobi can\u2019t invite a mahi-mahi to come on board and jump into the frying pan and from there onto a plate with potatoes salad\u2026<\/p>\n
Yesterday afternoon, while Tobi took a nap in the cockpit, and I did some PC work, the \u201crrrrrrrr\u201d of the fishing rod reel cut through the silence. Tobi must have been far inside fishing dreamland because I was the one who yelled \u201cfish\u201d. Being brought back into real life of a fisherman, he started fighting the fish. I slowed down MaRe to about 3 KN STW. When MaRe was slow enough, the guff placed ready for use, I went to fighting Tobi. \u201cWhat it\u2019s it?\u201d, I asked. “Most likely a tuna\u2019, he replied, \u201cIt doesn\u2019t jump\u201d. But immediately after this conversation, the fish jumped. It was a big mahi-mahi and, it was gone\u2026 Off of the hook it was. “Eyeyeye\u2026\u2019 was the only the sound escaping from Tobi\u2019s mouth. No four-letter word with an attempt to hammer a hole into MaRe\u2019s deck.<\/p>\n
With peaks of 21-22 KN the wind was gentle into the late morning hours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
