sea lions
no whales, no spouts, etc.

A few more brief details...

According to captain Steve, his communication with the Condor  
revealed that the whales that the Condor saw were out PAST Santa Cruz  
and closer to Santa Rosa.  So it seems like the whales have moved and  
are currently not as close as they had been for the last few months.

The Speed Twin may be changing to longer trips as soon as this  
Saturday, so if on the Speed Twin, check in first!

Bhrian Resnik was another naturalist on board!  It was great to work  
with him.

Back in Minnesota a common phrase was, "even the worst day fishing is  
still better than a good day work" could be repurposed, "even the  
worst day whale watching is better..."  Not that this was the worst  
day by any means.  Still better than work!
