Today we sailed 55 miles north from our last anchorage with South Easterly winds reaching over 30 knots. Our first choice of an anchorage at a headland called Ras Terma had to be abandoned as the hills acted as a wind funnel and we were hit by a sand storm with winds reaching 45 knots. Our current location is off a low lying island and is a lot more comfortable although we still have plenty wind but much calmer seas. We caught our first Red Sea fish today a medium sized Yellow fin Tuna but have also already lost three of our lures to much larger fish...very frustrating!
