[status] We made it to the island, and had a great trip. We had a lot of current against us, so it took us 12 hour hours to go 64NM, but it was worth the effort. We were fortunate and landed 5 fish, with the sixth fish getting away with our lure and chummers. That fish was a sailfish of some sort that took the line and snapped the lure and chummer away. It remained jumping and splashing as we sailed on with the lure dangling from its mouth. ARG. We were glad to catch the fish that we did as we had been on a drought for a long time with fresh fish. We checked into the ranger station here upon arrival and gave them a freshly caught tuna. They were happy, and showed us around the station. We will explore more this afternoon after school. Two nights ago they had a baby turtle hatch on the beach...so we will see if we can witness this tonight.
