Sue eating kahawai
Some people think of kahawai as bait fish, but we like to eat it. We cook it whole in the oven and then the big bones just fall away. An orange, fresh herbs, and a splash of white wine. It's a delicate flavour, nothing like its cousin, the salmon. This was the first cruise in four months. Sailed at 11.30 from Havelock and straight out to Homestead Bay, Port Ligar. Each day at the back of high water shoals of kahawai came into the bay feeding and boiling on the surface. They shimmer like the light on the water. Came in on the Sunday and used the holiday to tidy up at a leisurely pace, that's how we like it. Logged 58 nm.
