sea mammals and salmon in Chatham Strait


Dalls Porpoise bow riding the Alize'.


Ryan got a beautiful shot of this porpoise right in the middle of a very fast rooster kick.



A single salmon provides about 3-4 meals on the Alize', so we have been bringing one in ever couple of days to keep the Omega 3's up.



and another one.

Harbor seals line up like a team of neoprene clad divers.


An Orca patrols the top of Chatham Strait.

Another very difficult shot by Ryan - a Humpback in mid-breach caught with a telephoto lens.

gorgeous tail-lob.

Ryan takes the helm.
