June 8, 2024 – A sunset sail with Biggs/Transient orcas T101’s. We met the orcas after they flipped north in Cattle Pass as they came around Griffin Bay and inside Dinner Island. When they reached Friday Harbor it looked like they stopped to hunt before continuing north. We left the whales at Point Caution to sail across the channel to Point George and tacked back to Friday Harbor.
