Cagliari to Monastir

Timed this crossing perfectly leaving about 18hrs after a big storm blew through wrecking some boats in the Marina. Pushed off at 445 and got the sails up and set by 515 before it got dark. We never saw more than 20kts TWA and never went below 6kts. We put a total of 8.4 total hoirs between both engines for the crossing. Started off sailing deep downwind at 150, that lasted most of the night in winds typically 13-18kts. Morning brought some light winds under 7kts so we ran on an engine, set fishing pole and caught a bluefin within 30 mins. Partially accidentally let it escape and got lucky and caught a Dorado just under 20lbs not more than 30 mins later. Afternoon saw us use the gennaker for a couple of hours into the night around 10pm when we finally took it down because we were getting headed. Sail through the night was mostly at 45 - 66AWAn. Bits of light wind but mostly 11 - 13kts. Just after sunrise the wind came up to 14 - 15 and we started to cook eating up the miles the last 30nm avg 7+... Tunisia Navy called to inquire about what we were doing Swell was mostly less than a meter started at just over 1 m and was following seas. When we rounded Cap Bon we started to get a se swell, not fun slamming into it.
