Another look at the Pacific White-sided Dolphins
Here's another look at the cool coloring of the Pacific
White-sided Dolphins passing us on our starboard (right)
side. The coloring of the fin and the dorsal stripe down the
side are a real contrast to the sleek black bodies and the
pure white bellies. The Pacific White-sided Dolphin is known
for swimming like a shark with only it's dorsal fin sticking
out of the water, slicing it's way through the surface. |

A look behind us at the Dolphins
This is the final look at the last of the pod of Dolphins
before they sped away ahead of us and vanished from our
sight. |

A little crabby today?
Here's a quick look at a couple of the Red Rock Crabs that
were making their way to the dinner table tonight. As we had
just recently gotten underway and everything was still
stowed and packed away (including the crab trap), the
adventurous crew of Mad Dog Voyager headed out in the
inflatable catamaran dinghy to do a little crab catching
by hand. Once you get the system down pat and figure out
(real quick!) the right way to grab and hold onto the crabs
it's a snap to catch them this way. Mmmm, nothing like fresh
seafood straight from the water. |

About this image:
Sailing Yacht Momo
This is the Sailing Yacht Momo from Switzerland. Yvonne &
Bruno (Brünu) were travelling with us on the trip up to
Glacier Bay Park in Alaska. You can see Yvonne standing near
the stern of Momo checking if the rain is letting up. We
were near the Yaculta Rapids waiting for the right time to
enter and pass through the rapids. There were 5 rapids that
need to be traversed in succession to take advantage of the
current and tide. The whole thing went through without a
hitch. |

Planning the next few days
Yvonne & Bruno from the Swiss sailing yacht Momo, Kikka &
Andreas from the Italian sailing yacht Mai Stracc and Dean
from Mad Dog Voyager checking out the charts, books and
Pilot Guides to make travel plans for the next few days,
Some of the people look very intense, others are wondering
when the coffee and dessert are showing up. |

About this image:
Sailing Yacht Mai Stracc
This is the Italian Sailing Yacht Mai Stracc, home of
Kikka, Andreas and their cat. Kikka and Andreas were
also traveling to Alaska and Glacier Bay, but they were
on a tighter schedule than Mad Dog or Momo and soon went
ahead. Here they are nearing the rapids by Yaculta.
Anyone seen the suntan lotion? Anyone seen the sun?? |
