long time. It was nice to see Stena Europe looking so spruced up after her refit and we had a a really good welcome from the Master Shaun Boyce and all our old friends on the crew. While the sea was flat calm visibility was poor with the ever present risk of the dreaded fog. Off Strumble we started seeing porpoise with 3 separate sightings totaling 8 adults and 1 juvenile. We then had a quiet hour before more porps and 2 common dolphins. We then had regular porpoise sightings until well after Tusker when 3 rissos surfaced just in front of our bow. These were followed by a pod of 15 common dolphin. A very successful trip with 16 sightings and the visibility remaining poor but good enough.
