A little rain didn’t scare away our charter group this
morning! We were a little damp leaving the dock but by the time we found
whales, the rain had subsided. Minke
whales were out in force! We had about a dozen different ones throughout the
trip as well as a huge fin whale named Crow.

This afternoon, we found 5-6 minke whales again, along with
Crow and a second fin whale! One of our
minke whales cruised right next to us, showing us its pointed nose and white flipper
patches.
Crow was a little elusive but was in proximity of another whale that
came up along side our boat, allowing us views of its white lower jaw and
chevron! At one point, Crow swam under our boat, but we only knew this from our fish-finder!
On our way home, we passed
through the Isles of Shoals and caught some quick looks at a harbor seal and a
couple of harbor porpoises! Great day!
