CELC Aboard Boundless! Day 4 18 April 2012

Julia: Today we woke up in Allen's Cay. I sleep in the cockpit and so when I wake up I see the sea. When we see the sea it had multiple shades of blue. Its nothing like the water in CT, it's much bluer. We sailed to Norman's Cay. There was a plane wreck off of Norman's Cay about 30 yrs ago. We swam in and out of the wreckage plane. It was covered in coral and a bunch of fish live in it now. Groups of fish were following us and coming close enough for us to touch. We went to a coral reef, and while me and Jody were swimming, we found us face to face to a baby great barracuda and I got really scarred!

Kyle: 4/18/12 today we sailed to Norman's Cay and immediately got in the dingy. I drove the dingy a mile or two to a reef called "the refrigerator". the "fridge" is called that because it has tons of great eating fish. The conch shell grounds were only 400 yards away, and we dove for them for an hour or so. We skinned them and ate conch fritters for dinner. We also dove on a sunken DC 3 with scrap metal all around.

Jody: After arriving at Norman's Cay, we took the dingy to a reef called "the refrigerator". I was swam right next to a barracuda. We where looking for conch shells and we found almost 20. The coral was absolutely amazing, There where many colors and the fish were bright and colorful. After seeing the reefs and looking for conch shells, we went to a sunken airplane, and I was swimming around and through it. It was very fun.

Jared: I saw lots of things today. For example, several vary large barracuda. It was silver with blue dots. We found a total of 19 conch and Jeff showed us how to clean and prepare them, we ate them for dinner. They were goooood. I brought my video camera so everything is on tape.

A grand day ... everyone is doing an amazing job as crew, trying new things, and taking it all in. We are seeing uninhabited islands, snorkeling o'plenty, and having a glorious adventure. We will now have some more food - tacos and music night tonight. M- please let Duncan know that we are 'keeping our halyards tight' and sending LOTS of love.
