Auckland Island Whale Expedition

We spent most of July in Port Ross in the Auckland Islands on Evohe. We were looking after a group of scientists doing research on  southern right whales, which breed during winter in Port Ross. After spending a couple of days waiting for weather in Port Adventure, we had reasonably good weather with no days where we were unable to work and a couple of stunning days down at 50 degrees south.

Yes, it is always this calm down here
