More from the crew this morning 8:30 est:
Last night was actually our worse night. I only got a few hours sleep.
Had a problem with a Paravane bird nit tracking straight, but doing some weird circle,
2. A circle, like a pendulum would do. We adjusted the angle of the poles, changed speed, course. No diff.
Finally, pulled older, bigger bird out of lazerret
3.and all was well. But by then it was 03:00 and time for my watch to start.
Had my last piece of SC pecan pie warming in the er.
Man, that was good pie.
In conclusion, I went I've size smaller in the second set of birds and I think they are TOO small, as the boat was rolling more too.
Another failed experiment, but, man, that pecan pie was good. Kept in the freezer so well too.
Since this trip began, Julie and I have never had a sense that we were far from land.
Don't know why.
We'll anchor in the port tonight, go to Marina in a.m.
