The wind shifted into the East early this morning so we poled the jib out to the weather side. It's called Wing-on-Wing and is giving us a much nicer ride than having the jib poled out to leeward (turbo mode). I wish we could have done this before, but we'd have ended up going due West, instead of West South West.
We had 7 small flying fish on board this morning. All were from one to three inches in length. That's not much of a record though. Tara III an Australian boat had 33 one-inch flying fish on deck yesterday morning. I suggested they could deep fry them and eat them like French Fries but it was too late, they'd already thrown them back into the sea.
