A cargo ship running without someone attending the VHF came very close last night doing 13 kts overtaking us as they headed a few degrees more south than us on their way toward Panama. After hailing it on VHF 16, 12 & 13 citing their AIS MMSI number a several times, someone finally responded sounding like they were awakened from a deep sleep. Besides the intense accent, muttering out of sleepiness made it very hard to understand what was being said. Eventually, when they were within 2.5 miles, the person said they will avoid us and pass on our starboard quarter. The cargo ship was over 70 ft long moving right along and changed course enough–thank you! Then, a weather system arrived with rain–rinsed off the boat nicely and then brought several brief periods of 20/25 kts of gustiness. It sure is dynamic out here. The day began with orange sky rather than red sky which was encouraging and ended up being a mild sailing day. It was a nice break from the motoring! AND! Our fishing luck returned with gusto! We just finished cleaning and fileting the biggest MahiMahi yet! It was over 4 feet long. So we are in business for more fish tacos, fish chowder and breaded and sauteed fish filet-ettes! Joe has become the official fish processor and manages the official fish processing plant–the cockpit of Aeriagnie. He’s got the routine down now. Now we’re on the hunt for a tuna! WE have wasabi, ginger, soyou and chopsticks waiting! It looks like the high is moving back in again–clear skies! We area all doing well–getting more sleep, eaating well and enjoying the beautiful scenery.
