3 DAYS AT SEA

At 20.44 on the 13th  Feb we weighed anchor and set a course East throught the Straits of Magellan into the South Atlantic. I then sailed North for 3 days  seawatching for 14th, 15th and 16th before arriving to Motivideo on the 17th and finally my return to Buenos Aires on the 18th.

This shall be my final photo update, so I thank all those who contributed to the site and hope all who have read it have found it of interest and enjoyed in the sharing of some great photographs. This has without doubt been one of greatest seawatching experieiences of my life and it's been a pleasure for me to share some of the more memorable moments with you.  So until next time..Mucho gracias y hasta luego mi amigos
