SD, you should know better than to post nudy pictures!

If that shellback certificate excites you, you're worse off than I thought...and that's pretty bad...considering my opinion of most lawyers.

I'll be sending you some gift certificates to The Foxy Lady...

less then 400 miles to the Marquesas and a level bed and floor, I have been on a port tack for near all the distance. Walking on solid ground will be interesting.

Is that really Simon's part of the update - or sinisterly yours?

Well the fishing tackle has been put away for a while, as I have a freezer full of sail fish, about 1pm I hooked onto a bill fish of some kind it jumped dived and nearly stopped the boat

and when it went down it was like pulling up a dead weight, then it pulled the hook and was gone. I was happy about that because what do you do with a fish that big. anyhow left the line out and about 3pm the bucket shot across the cockpit (this is my bite indicator) and an hour later I have one sail fish laying over the back seats about 5 foot something long . I cut 6 good fillets the same length as the freezer. So no more fishing till I need too. The clean up is just too much work.
