Sept 8th

Our Fastcat morning trip was spent with no word of any orca north, east, south or west! So we did what we always do ... go and try and find them! No orca or larger pelagic whales were to be seen out south in the straits and along the Juan de Fuca. We got to see our favourite Race Rocks, and with a seal enthusiast on board, it made for a great trip! Our afternoon trip had word once again of transient orca up in Boundary Pass by East Point. So, having not learnt our lesson yesterday, we ventured up there, to then hear on the radio these 4 transients (Male T103 and 3 ladies) were north west of East Point! We saw them, and had a fabulous trip, and even saw a female spyhop twice! See below 2 video links! Long trip, but once again very well worth it!
