We are getting 2021 started with a real rip snorting storm. High winds and seas are forecast to go at least until Wednesday the 13th. We will get trips underway just as soon as things settle down. The online booking service has been disabled until the forecast moderates, so keep checking in with us. We hope everyone has had a safe start to the new year and we continue to be optimistic for the coming season.
