Humpback whales
On Sunday August 15 We ran out to the SW about 5 miles and scored on HUMPBACK WHALES.
On Monday August 16 We had a foggy and rough day and failed to get the whales :=(
For Tuesday Aug 17 we ran about 9 Miles to the SW and saw spouts in the distance but had to head back because we were out of time. The forecast looks good for the next few days so we are due for some great trips.

On the morning trip we saw HUMPBACK WHALES and BLUE WHALES. The weather was calm and we had a great trip.
On the afternoon trip we had the whales in sight at 9 miles, but sadly the whales were heading out and we ran out of time and couldn't catch up to them. Return trip passes were given out. We did have DAHL'S PORPOISES riding the bow wave for a short time. Sweet!

Perfect day!
Yesterday morning (Friday) we had a wonderful trip. We saw several HUMPBACKS, a BLUE WHALE and a pod of about a dozen DAHL'S PORPOISES riding the bow waves. The weather was flat calm and the sun came out. Just wonderful!

Whales, whales, whales!!
Thursday 8/12/10 This afternoon on the way out we saw a space shuttle escape pod drill! A huge helicopter carried the pod to 14,000 ft and released it. It came floating down with 3 giant orange parachutes and splashed in the water. We spotted a BLUE WHALE for a while and saw several spouts in the distance.
Thursday 8/12/10 9:00 am trip. We saw the spouts and were just about to the whales, 6 miles SW of Morro Bay, when the Coast Guard boat came along side and ordered us to leave the area because of a drill. We were unable to find other whales. Return passes were issued.
Wednesday 8/11/10 We saw whales on both trips.

Monday's Whale Trips
Morning Trip:
On our morning trip we went out about ten miles. We found at least a dozen humpback whales, along with a large group of sea lions feeding with the whales. Also off in the distance were a couple of blue whales feeding. The weather was great, and the water was calm. All in all, it was another awesome trip.
Afternoon Trip:
On the afternoon trip we went out about seven and a half miles. We found about twenty humpbacks, that were having a blast breaching. The crew also found a group of blue whales that were feeding with the humpbacks. The weather was beautiful, and the water was calm just as it was on the first trip. Another great whale watching adventure.
Thanks,
