Captain Dave is Taking Over

Comments: Well, this is my sign-off as Captain. Captain Dave is taking over and Iโ€™m headed back to Canada to spend a couple of weeks with my kids. Our transit from Guadalupe Island back to Ensenada was uneventful with mild 6ft seas yesterday evening, mellowing out overnight to just a low swell for the morning. This was truly a lovely trip with a group of exceptionally warm and nice people onboard. The great white sharks werenโ€™t bad either!!

Confirmed shark identifications for Day 1 were: โ€œDaryl,โ€ โ€œErik,โ€ โ€œShredderโ€ (as always!!) and โ€œStimpy.โ€ Sightings for Day 2 were: โ€œShredder,โ€ โ€œSquire,โ€ โ€œChica,โ€ and โ€œErin.โ€ Mauricio the shark scientist was busy on Day 3 tracking and following a juvenile with a tag by panga and we had trouble confirming our idโ€™s. We saw 1 big female, 2 males (12 โ€“ 14 feet), 1 10ft male and 1 super cute juvenile at 7 feet. Behaviour and sightings on Day 3 were especially outstanding. Cheers and safe diving!
