On The Mark, Ready ...

At Sea, 27 47 N 79 52 W

Well we're at sea again and heading north but there's not much action. There has been little or no wind so far today.

We had to motor out into the Gulf Stream. At least here we're making 3.8 knots of progress free without any wind.

The verdict is still out on how far north we'll go this passage. It depends on the wind, the current and the weather reports.

We tried fishing today. There was a little shark hiding in the shade under our boat. Any lure or any bait we dropped into the water he came out to see but he never bit on anything.

I put on a trolling lure and dragged it behind us for 6 hours. No bites. When I reeled it up it had snagged a clump of sea weed.

Hopefully tonight a breeze will come up.

For the first time I trolled a lure behind us.
