Today's net

Ahoy mateys!

This post is special because I’m doing it by typing the way normal people do. 

Which is typing with my fingers on the home keys. 

I knew I was ready to post a blog post when I was able to type:

Super lemurs fly through space eating everything in their face. A moldy shoe. A tuba loo. What do you say? What do you think? Don’t make a big stink. 

I know it’s nonsense but it sounds good and cool. 

Now let’s get to business. 

Right now we are on an eleven dollar mooring in Black Sound in Green Turtle Cay. 

It is the fifteenth of April. And fourteen days until my eleventh birthday. 

I am writing this post to sound like the Georgetown Cruisers Net. A cruisers net is a morning broadcast on the VHF telling what’s going on in town and the anchorage. It includes things like weather, kids’ activities, local events, departures and arrivals, and things for sale, trade, or give-away. (One time my dad almost bought an outboard on the net but it was too heavy and expensive.)

Now, any departures for today? Well, all of the food we’ve been eating. For breakfast we had bagels with cream cheese. And for lunch I had a chicken and broccoli noodle dish. 

Now, the weather for today is cloudy with a chance of meatballs. Nope. I’m joking. The meatballs were last night’s dinner and weren’t very good.

The weather is south west fifteen knots. Tonight will be squally from the north with winds at, about fifteen to twenty knots. And squalls. 

Now, cruisers general is that today we will be going into Green Turtle Cay’s town to drop of a propane tank and get ice cream. 

Trade or give away? Nothing heard.

Now moving on to new arrivals,

We have a frozen Mahi on board. 

The first night we had sushi and the second night we had it breaded and grilled. 

We caught the Mahi off shore headed to Lynyard Cay in the Abacos. We also caught a barracuda the same day but let it go. The Mahi was the perfect size and only flapped once. My mom got it with vodka then wrapped it in a towel and put it head down in a bucket. After it was filleted I fetched her a zip lock bag and we stuffed it with our first ever fish. 

Now to kids’ corner. Nothing heard. 

Thank you for  listening to the net. Tune in next time and enjoy you day. 

Moss back to 68.
