(OK, not a tuna, but it's the only fish photo I have from the trip)
Sailing all night, set bird kite at dawn, caught fish at 6, saw Dall's porpoises at 0630, all is good aboard Kotuku. Forgot to report best tuna dish done by Judy last night. Tuna chunks dredged in dry vegetarian chili mix, fried in olive oil over rice with lime juice and salsa verde. Take the recipe to the bank my friends. Matt has a cardboard model of the I550 about half done. Using graham cracker boxes and super glue. Pray that the real one has plywood and epoxy. Looks very cool though and even has a name on it, honey, ??? Last night's gribs have winds looking much improved so likely to hit Neah Bay in the early morning. Don't know if we will stop because fuel dock likely closed. Will have more news this evening on that. Starting to get static on VHF 16 and seeing bull kelp strands in the water. Everyone is asleep. Feeling like home and friends are near, carrying on, Al0800 PDT position 48 06N 127 59W course 070 speed 7.0 wind 13 kt at 275, DTF 130

Thanks for that report, Graeme! It seems like a lot of people are looking forward to Judy’s cooking. It sounds delish, especially if the tuna came straight from the catch. There’s nothing like a sumptuous meal after a hard day of fishing!
