We are passing Nikaori which is more of a hill than a headland as I set the long centre. I struggle with the clip because I am looking into the sun, so the day is not as gloomy as this coast looks! As we move on we round Fteni Pounda which is a low headland. I start to set the port inner and it is hit just as I stop it. It catches me by surprise, and causes amusement. We are crossing Chatzighianara vala and I re-set the port inner, without anything grabbing it this time as we start to round Kefali. I re-set the starboard flat line and I am not happy with the port flat line. It seems we have a small tangle involving the port flat line and the short centre. Not too surprising that, under the circumstances! I am still not happy but re-set the port flat line. OK so the starboard flat line and the short centre has tangled! We are now round Kefali and are back in the sun! I might be the captain but for some reason I think I can set the short centre without unclipping it, or pulling the clip in. This is in fact not possible! I re-set the starboard flat line as we cross the bay holding the small beach of Pirghos, which we cannot see! You will also note that the captain has to wash the blood off the deck.
As we cross the bay of Pirghos the short centre is hit and Jill has a go stand-up. After a titanic struggle the giant fish is boated. The Little Tunny we caught on this trip were cured, smoked, and given to the people of Halki. Cape Tsgariou can be seen. It denotes the east side of Pirghos. We are then crossing the bay of Kalamiotis. This bay has a slow slope in and finishes with a west facing coast which is the beginning of Timbos, a large headland with two lobes. Just off the eastern lobe is a small detached rock, and unfortunately this is all we see of the bay and headland due to the orientation of the boat. We do get a good view of the eastern side of Timbos, and the bay of Lefkos. The bay has a double aspect with no beaches and a sloping lead into the next headland to distinguish it from Dhio Ghiali. The next headland is Cape Armeno. We are then crossing Dhio Ghiali. This bay has two north-south sides so it is narrow, and has two sandy beaches. At elapsed time 11:04 you may see a Dorado on the left side of the screen. It jumps in its haste to attack the spread. It hits and misses a lure with a splash, and hits the port outer. This was the third and final Dorado for our feast at Babis. It was also the largest, so Aribert brought it in. By this time we have crossed Dhio Ghiali.
