Mazu - Day 12 - More Whales and Dolphins

As dawn is breaking on Day 13, I just had to jot down yesterday’s highlights. Not only was it a great sailing day but we also spotted whales breaching about a quarter of a mile away and there seemed to be dolphins all over the place, some that seemed to be on a mission, ahead of the whales, and others who were in a more playful mood, especially around our bow wave. To cap off the day, the moon rose shortly after the sun set and it was a beautiful clear moonlit night. Off our port side, we can see Zeeland, another ARC Europe boat that we have been speaking to regularly on the twice daily SSB nets but haven’t seen until now.

Now only 215 miles to go ......
