9-23-20 “Blue Bird Day”

Another blue bird day out on the water, with Captain JJ Rasler behind the helm. Little known fact about Rasler: He’s quite the singer. The wheelhouse was aglow with vocals as we bounded across the sea, finding no less than 11 humpback whales and over 300 Risso’s Dolphin (with a few scattered Pacific White Sided Dolphin in tow). Overall, a light hearted, easy day on the bay.
