Ecological
It is babies time for the seagulls and some of those small chicks got in pretty bad situation:I saw one getting killed by another gull( territory story) and a a huge vulture got another one just under my window.The eagles are very active after dawn. We had not one Sea lion to Yesterday and like by magic they appeared :30 and more of them, mainly on South rocks. The whole island is getting white and smelly! Yes it ‘s definitively Summer on Race rocks
Maintenance
Usual tasks :solar panels, desalinator on…etc . I will be on training at the college almost the whole week … Also I realized how it’s tricky to manage this boat when there is 30 knots and strong current and swell! it is not impossible but be prepare to be totally damp when you arrive!
Vessel
Many ecotourism boats to the end of the afternoon
