The DOLDRUMS.
We went from one extreme to the other. The week before we had squalls and big sees and this week we had doldrums and flat seas 🌊 We appreciated the calmer weather and seas and decided it was the perfect opportunity to clean the hull of the yacht. We jumped into the water, a little apprehensive about the fact that there was 3000m of water below us but it was amazing. The water was so clear, when we were scrapping the hulls we could watch the barnacles falling into the unknown for minutes! We thought if that was the case we would surely have enough time to see a shark coming 🤣 After cleaning the hulls we decided we would have a dive bomb competition off the yacht and have some fun!
We had mahi mahi following us for days before we managed to catch a few after trying MANY different fishing tactics! We had baitfish under our sugar-scoops for days, we became quite fond of the little fellas and checked on them daily. Colben, without our knowledge, caught one and set it as a live bait and that’s is how we eventually caught our first dorado in days. After that we couldn’t keep up with hauling them in. We were dying for a yellow fin tuna that we could make sushi with but only caught a Skip Jack tuna that we made a delicious meal with.
