We
leave Princess Royal Harbour and Bernie tells me that 2 whales are out
by the ship at anchor. We head in that direction and find the whales
heading towards Michaelmas Island slowly. They are joined by 10 to 15
Bottle nose dolphins. Chasing them as they do giving some good photos.
With the help of Dora and Boots, steering the boat, a couple of soft K9 toys that are along for the ride. We follow enjoying morning tea as we are in King George Sound and sheltered from the 4.5 metre swell that has been forecast out side.
The whales are cruising towards Herald Reef. We leave them and cruise the northern side of Michaelmas, spotting a breach further east.
We find 2 humpbacks heading towards the eastern end of Breaksea Island and 3 whales back between the islands about level with the light house.
Then as they head around the east end of the island, we head back to shelter between the islands. More whales north east of Breaksea and then when we head back towards home we find 2 more humpbacks heading between the island.
Home by 1230 and the kids are giving me high fives for finding whales and letting the dogs have a drive.
