wooooo, what a day! Started with a 3:15 am wake up call to make it to Wax Cay Cut at slack. It was pretty sketchy navigating through the rocks and rolly waves to get to the cut, then once in it boy was it rough. x10000 because we couldnāt see where the waves were coming from and were just getting thrown all around. Once we made it through there we motored for a couple hours til sunlight through some pretty rolly swells 3-5 ft 2-3 secs i would guess. Wind angle wasnāt entirely favorable so we were pretty much sideways against the waves making it even worse, but we put up the sails and it felt a lot better. I went to take a nap and was awaken by Grace frantically telling me that āsomethings going on with the fishing pole thereās almost no line left on the reelā LOL i jumped up so fast- initially worried i left the bail open. Began reeling that in for the next 30 mins with a mahi on the end! We were SO stoked, this was our first one of the trip! We manifested this crossing would be when we caught one and we did! We sailed for id say 3/4 of the trip which is super great for us as we are still learning. We made it into Governors Harbor just before sunset, got anchored and ready for a long night of sleep and an easy going day tomorrow, along with our fish tacos for dinner tomorrow night š¤¤š¤¤. (last pic is fish blood on my face blending in with my freckles š¤£š¤£)
