Sailing with friends

Had an opportunity to crew for an old acquaintance on passage on their families cat. A 38 foot Lagoon, EYRA. We went from Marsh Harbor in the Bahamas to Wilmington NC. It was about 500 miles of off shore sailing up the gulf stream. Had very nice conditions and a very nice passage. If only they were all that easy.



Some dolphins came to play. Stayed for quite a while. Then came back later for another round. All in all they were with us for about an hour. About 10 of them. It was quite something.


This is John with a nice tuna he battled with. It put up quite a fight. We also caught several other tuna, a mahi, and a couple of barracudas.

All for now.
