Another nice day of sailing in light air. Lots of electrical activity overnight. Fluenta fishing drought is over as we caught a 83" long (we broke our scale trying to weigh it) sailfish. Fish now for breakfast, lunch and dinner and the fishing lines are inboard as the fridge and freezer are full. Photos on the blog at: SV-Fluenta.blogspot.ca

[status] As of 2016-11-16 15:00 UTC: Sunny skies today but big cloud banks developed during the day. Many squall cells overnight, some with heavy rain. Mix of motor sailing and sailing. Moving slowly to SE. Slight swell started to appear today and expect that to continue to build. Sailed by several round markers in the water Probably placed here by the fleet of fishing boats we passed by. Water cleared up and we were able to use the watermaker. Caught a little tuna late in the afternoon.
