We’re currently off the coast of Morocco. We had nice wind to leave Spain and no trouble crossing the shipping lanes between the med and the Atlantic. Shortly after dinner we received a call on VHF from our buddy boat, Bright Eyes alerting us to nearby Dolphins. They were wrong, it was Killer Whales!
A small family of maybe five whales, including a young one, were happily playing on the surface, jumping, slashing and showing off. We followed them to take photos, only stopping when the larger male whale dived directly under the full length of Itchy Foot and we realized how small we are. Quit while you are winning, and still have a rudder.
More photos when we get back to land. Posting this via Iridium GO Satellite phone, fingers crossed that it works.
Love to hear from you! Love the whales! We are with you all the time!
