The crew is first rate!

We could not have had a smoother crossing to Guadalupe Island. It was like being in a bathtub except that we were on the giant Nautilus Explorer.

We got to see another California sea lion cruising around the great white sharks. It's a good thing they keep their heads on a swivel.
