We spent much time with them and loved viewing them as they entered Thacher Pass making their way to San Juan Channel.
Eventually, we lost track of the T46’s They may have veered off on their own.
I don’t think I have ever made public a vessel name and detailed operator pics ramrodding over Orca but today a yacht slowed to view orca right in front of them and then proceeded to follow on their tail. I called them on VHF channel 16 to let them know they were not legal to be trailing them at 100 yards much less the law of 400 yards. They claimed ignorance not seeing the whales. They also called me a meathead and now on the computer see I was being flipped off. The yacht Brew Crew registered out of landlocked Kirkland, WA. As they approached directly from the rear, ran right over the top, and from the captain said they were en-route to Roche Harbor and did not see any whales. They continued on to Roche Harbor after this.
The pics you see before and after the yacht pics are exactly that, pics taken before the vessel ran over them and after they ran over them, and this after they slowed to view the whales.
