Skipper's Report
After a straight stretch of stunning weather since Christmas, we had our first sprinkle of rain. Not enough to even try and dampen the spirits onboard or even keep the farmers happy in these hot summer months!
A great bunch of guests on board, explorers of all ages! A fair few fish caught... and released. Snorkeling on this cruise has to be one of the highlights of the summer cruising so far as an inquisitive pod of dolphins joined us while we were in the water. Thankfully Nic was able to capture some amazing underwater footage of these amazing creature in their natural habitat.
