Boats/Visitors

  • A few ecotours and fishing boats going by
  • Greg dropped by to help us sort out our water situation

Maintenance

  • Fence maintenance with the help of the students
  • The electric water pump in the crane shed is working to an extent, the issue is the hose doesn’t go out far enough, so I can’t pump water at low tide
  • The fire pump also needs some maintenance

Ecological

  • The students have been doing a daily census
  • Today they have spotted about 7 or 8 humpbacks and a pod of about 6 killer whales
