Hi,

12 Humpbacks  (5 different sightings) (8 Photo IDs)--pec slaps (lots), chin slaps, fluking, breaching  
A few sea lions
two harbor seals
Birds:  pelagic and double crested cormorants
	   pigeon guillemots 
	   city and pink-footed shearwaters 

Hazy weather, mild wind, and bumpy seas but wonderful sightings with Captain Mat with Dennis, Matt, and Milo (h.s. intern) completing the crew. 
Also aboard was Bob Perry taking pictures for the Condor.  The other naturalists were Cubby Winkler and John Kuizenga, PID.
Passengers from Germany, Switzerland, France, Vietnam, Austrailia and LA, TO, and Camarillo were thrilled with the whales and appreciated
viewing Painted Cave.

A cooler day than expected with excellent results.
