After the "First Night In Town Syndrome" the kids were happy to spend Day 2 of their spring break vegging on the beach while CTM and I continued to address our battery issue. Addressing the battery issue involved a few phone calls to the manufacturer in the US and a phone call to Smalley. We needed to get the charger from New Jersey to Smalley in Miami. Smalley said he would then fly it over the following Wednesday, March 16th. Since we would be fishing and that would keep the batteries charged all we needed to do was to get the battery charged so we could use the toilet, lights, and start the engine....very important when living on a boat and planning to go fishing :). We spent the day with a portable charger on the battery. By late afternoon we were good to go...batteries charged and charger on it's way to Miami!!!
CTM told the troops to be here bright and early on Day 3 so we could head out early. We caught one Mr. Barry Cuda, one Wahoo, and had a Blue Marlin hooked up for about 30 minutes! Yes....a BIG ELUSIVE BLUE!!!! After 30 minutes he spit the hook and swam away...ALAS!!! :(
Catch of the day....
We took some of the Wahoo up to Bimini Big Game's restaurant and they whipped up some fresh Wahoo salad for an appetizer......YUMMO!!
Obviously it was DELISH!!!
Catch you on the flip flop.....
