We have finished our third night and are starting our 4th day. Its 10am (1500 zulu) cog is 190, sog is 4.8. All is well. A bit of excitement when a big bull mahi took my homemade lure--yes the homemade one again. Fortunately he was on the big rod/reel. But as I was reeling him in, Amy noticed a line under the boat. So in the process of killing the engines and trying to figure out what the line was, the big bull shook off--not more than 10 ft from the boat. I had to dive under to remove the line which was a fragment of a long line fisherman's line. It still had a huge chunk of squid on a hook wrapped around our starboard dagger board, and a bit of 3/16' polypropylene line was wrapped around our starboard prop. Yes, the prop on the saildrive we just repaired.
Also found a couple of small squid on deck. We are now using them as bait.

Top of an active underwater volcano about halfway between Terceira and Sao Miguel. Yes, Active. And there is no land in sight. We anchored in 100 feet of water. The dive was between 90 and 110 feet. With sheer drops to amazing depths all around.
Outstanding!!!
