Day three of a mid-Atlantic crossing finds the five-person crew — Brett, Jade, Ayana, Lastingo, and Penny the dog — roughly three days out with about 16 days remaining before reaching the far side of the Atlantic, where Ayana's newly purchased boat awaits.0:09 Wind is light throughout the day, forcing the crew to alternate between motoring and sailing; they pull in the headsail and run the engine when wind drops, then attempt to re-deploy it as conditions improve.17:04 Fishing with Ballyhoo bait produces two undersized mahi-mahi released early, then a keeper caught on a trolling line while managing a gybe preventer downwind — Brett fights the fish while Jade depowers the headsail to reduce boat speed and resistance.25:16 The mahi is filleted aboard and served as tacos with mango salsa while fresh fruit remains.30:27 The crew notes passage over an underwater seamount, which stirs nutrients and attracts marine life.1:09 Night watch prompts a frank discussion of man-overboard risk in total darkness: no moon, cloudy skies, and black water make a MOB scenario nearly invisible, reinforcing the rule that everyone clips in at night.32:37 Dog Dingo, recovering from an ear splint, is managed with mental enrichment games rather than physical play.10:31 The crew confirms the common offshore passage wisdom: the first three days are the hardest adjustment.6:31
