At 6pm last night, with just a couple of hours of sunlight left, we dropped the mooring ball and started our passage to Sardinia. The winds were lightly blowing out of the north so we kept the engine running and haven't turned it off since. With flat calm seas and almost a full moon it was easy to spot and avoid the floats set by the local long line fisherman so no tangles with the propeller and a peaceful night at sea.
This morning I was awoken by the sound of a whirling fishing reel and the site of Jimmy struggling to pull in a beautiful Mahi Mahi or dolphin fish - Yippee...Our first fish caught in the med and tonight's supper! We're still motoring along as the sun sets on another day and looking forward to a calm and clear night. We should arrive at our anchorage on the South West Coast of Sardinia some time early tomorrow morning.
