Saturday, June 12, 2010 – At Sea

We were up for the 4 am watch. Craig spoke to his wife during the night who informed us of a developing tropical depression. It was estimated that there was a 10% chance it would turn into a hurricane and head for Acapulco. We put out four trolling lines in the late afternoon but didn’t see much action – except for the one that took an entire reel of fishing line with it while everyone was inside the boat! No one saw the pole bend or heard the line peel away!

We found ourselves in the middle of a severe thunderstorm during the early evening hours. Lots of lightning, thunder and rain. The good thing about that was Adventure got a nice fresh water bath which washed all the ocean salt away.
