This morning our earliest guest appeared on the platform at 0600 full of energy and with curiosity to see the “Tuna ritual”. Crew dressing aprons cutting the tuna to prepare the baits are in the back deck while a few divers are staring to get ready for the first immersions in the surface cages at 0630. This dive day starts in the opposite way that the last, morning was slow in action specially in the surface. Submersible cages were another story; 3-4 sharks (those we can’t identify) are swimming around the cages and they made our morning. When the morning became afternoon, the action was better, and we have the surface busy also; couple of breaches made the guests happy and the crew stay more active. Hope we can maintain or increase those levels.
