AM:
4 Gray Whales

PM:
3 Gray Whales
1 Risso's Dolphin

The morning trip had about 40 folks, mostly local.  Gusty Santa Ana winds made 
for a lumpy ride but everyone fared fine.  Nothing at Anacapa Passage but 
finally found 4 cooperative Grays near Chinese Harbor and we followed them 
around Cavern Point.

Afternoon trip the winds died down and the seas flattened out.  It was a 
delightful trip.  Headed to Anacapa, around the backside and found a shy Gray 
and a Risso's Dolphin.  Then on to Santa Cruz and found 2 more Grays near San 
Pedro Point.  Followed them into Anacapa Passage, then home.

Captain Jimmy at the helm assisted by Luke and Paige...nice work by all.
