At 0700 UTC - day 3 - Roschier Baltic Sea Race: “Tschüss is in 30-35 knots of wind and it has been a bit bumpy!” commented Campbell Field, Tschüss 2 navigator on Monday morning 29th July. “Our ETA is a bit tricky to predict because our polars say we should be at 20 knots, but that wasn’t possible with this sea state. Right now (0800 UTC), the sea state has eased up a bit, the throttle is wide open, two reefs and the J4 on and hitting 24kt of boat speed at times. 96nm to go!”
Face to huge lipped face with a giant. Peeking under and within wrecks always brings the best surprises and this guy made our day. At 6ft (1.83m) long and roughly 400lb (181kg) this Goliath Grouper was large but not the largest of his pals. Growing on up to 1,000lb (454kg) and 8ft (2.5m) long, these dudes could have up to 57 million siblings from one mama in a single spawning aggregation and can live up to 37 years. We met this dude on the deep wrecks of Butler Bay in beautiful St Croix. Encrusted in live coral, surrounded in fish and voted one of the Best Caribbean Dive Sites by USA Today, The Deep Wrecks feature two wrecks in one dive. The Rosa Maria, a 177′ steel freighter in 70-110′ and The Coakley Bay, an oil refinery tug boat in 55-70′
