Friday, June 11, 2010 – At Sea



We were up for the 6 am watch. A brown booby traveled with us for several hours and seemed completely unafraid of us – we were able to sit right next to him up on the bow and take some pictures. Even Lucy had a hard time scaring him off!

Several storm cells built behind us during the morning and came on strong. We experienced rain and wind with up to 40 mph gusts before lunchtime. The seas got a little rougher, but it wasn’t too uncomfortable. Two or three times we had large schools of porpoise accompany us. We put in a few fishing lines early in the day and late in the afternoon but were unsuccessful in attracting any bites.
