Around 7:30 we set sail, heading for White Haven beach. Unfortunately the east coast was getting hammered by 30knot winds and 2m swell. As we became more and more aware of the windy reality of the planned destinations route, we chose to turn around and try out our luck at the west side and the southern islands (Even tho Guido and Nivi were more than happy to try out sailing in rough weather – feels like a rollercoaster!)
\nThe new spot for the night became an anchorage at Shaw Island. It was a bumpy ride getting there, with a bit of rain on the way, but it cleared up nicely as we arrived. Guido got up in the mast, checking for reefs, as Nivi was on the helm steering the boat to the anchorage.
\nAs we got settled the big question occurred: who is the better fisherman? Nivi started out taking the lead with the first fish of the day, but Andrew took over the title when when he reeled in the biggest fish, a nice 2.5 kg white snapper, which also ended up on the dinner table (Y U M!) Guido caught the most fish, a beautiful, coloured reef fish and a mangrove jack.
\nWho the better fisherman is, is still unclear (first fish, biggest fish, most fish??), so we will try again tomorrow to clear up the question.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
