What a Surprise!


The weather was beautiful on Jeffrey's Ledge today. The Granite State traveled about 23 miles from Rye this morning near a deep water area right above the ledge and found quite a surprise. We were watching a young Humpback whale, #0811, when the captain noticed a small whale off our bow. It turned out to be not one, but several Pilot whales! We actually haven't seen these whales out on Jeffrey's Ledge since 2005! What a treat it was to spend time with these playful whales. The weather looks great for this week and I hope you will join us soon.
