<p class=MsoNormal>T'was another absolutely beautiful day on the Santa Barbara
Channel which started out with an amazing lack of wildlife. We headed for
the gap between SCI & SRI but veered west along the North face SRI
instead. Finally after almost two hours the crew spotted a spout.
The whale, presumably a blue, had an erratic breathing pattern and Cap'n Mat
never was able to locate it for viewing. Shortly thereafter he located a
pair of Blues which we stayed with for a while. Then Cap'n Mat spotted a
spout in the distance, which he said was a Humpback, so off we went in sarch of
the Humpie. Cap'n Mat found the pair and we were treated by them with
several flukes. As previouslu stated it was a beautiful day and a very
successful whale watch!<o:p></o:p></p>
