October 3, 2021 – A fun sailing adventure with a pair of humpback whales MMY0079 “Scratchy” and MMX0076 “Delta” as they traveled westbound in Boundary Pass. We began our sail through the Wasp Islands and up to Flattop Island. We met the humpbacks north of Skipjack Island. After departing the humpbacks we sailed through New Channel and enjoyed the sunset as we sailed back to Friday Harbor.
