We kept a log of our trip.

We carried 9 "jugs on the rail". On December 4th (a calm day) we reloaded the fuel tank.

On December 4th we caught a "snake mackeral" (the mystery fish). It was too ugly to eat.

Mark adjusted the leech lines.

We caught a small mahi mahi with Captain Bruce's innovative "rig"

This is Captain Bruce "fileting" the mahi mahi.

We carried the rib upside down. The water si so... blue ...

Pictires do not do the "rock and roll" motion justice
