Whipee and Wahoo

The sky this morning when we left
Key Biscayne, beautiful!

Yipee we are here in Bimini, Bahamas after a very long and tiring day and Wahoo is what we got to eat. Now.... for we Canadians, what the heck is a Wahoo eh? Well, it is a very large fish (50 to 100lbs) and if you catch 10 of them, you start giving away steaks!! Yep, here at Bimini Big Game Club (a Guy Harvey Resort, look him up), there are anglers galore. They leave at day break and come back after lunch, crack open a beer and start filleting their “catch”. Well, we lucked out as we arrived at 1:30pm after an angler caught his 10 Wahoo. It is an awesome fish as I tasted it already in butter. Mmmmm. And we take anything free that we don't have to work at like filleting, that ugly work! We froze 4 steaks for when Paul's sister and brother-in-law come in a couple of weeks.

This is one of ten fish the boat owner caught
The local Bahamian fillets them all for him

Four steaks in freezer for later
Sauteed rest in butter to add to a wrap

We will not make it to Staniel Cay to pick up our guests so we will make other arrangements for Friday. No one messes with Mother Nature. And as any boater knows we are NOT suppose to have a schedule, oh well. We will fly our son and wife in along with friends where ever we are.

Paul is having a stiff drink after a day morning of extreme navigating!!

We will crack champagne in Nassau as friends gave us a bottle for Bimini but our journey is not over until Nassau.
