Captain Mat and crew did an incredible job of keeping us excited,  
informed and entertained the entire day!  We headed toward Santa Rosa  
where whales had been there the previous day, but had several  
diversions as we visited pods of Bottlenose Dolphins and Dall's  
Porpoises.   Near Santa Rosa we encountered whales everywhere!  At  
one point the passengers were pointing to blowing whales all around  
the boat.  To quote Captain Mat:  "They've got us surrounded!"  We  
were treated to a trip to Santa Cruz and Painted Cave before heading  
home, encountering Risso's and Common Dolphins.  As usual, Captain  
Mat and crew did an incredible job.

Passengers were from Holland, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada,  
Germany, England, Kansas, New York, Arizona, Texas and points beyond.

Thanks again to Captain Mat and crew for an exciting and educational  
day on the water!
