Possession Sound Whale Hunt

We will go where the grey whales go, in the hopes of viewing one.  

Due to weather, the trip has now been moved to Sunday, 3/19
  
Trip plan:
Launch from Mukilteo around 10am, head toward where the whale boats are (Hat Island, Whidbey Island). The nice sandy beaches and the muddy bottoms in this area are a favorite place for whales to feed.

The crossing to Whidbey or Hat Islands is 2+ nautical miles.  Be prepared for a little chop from unpredictable spring weather.  Participants should be comfortable in 10-15 knot winds and 1-2 foot waves in open water. Total distance covered is about 9 miles.  The route and date (i.e. go Sunday instead) may be adjusted according to weather and interest of the group.  

 
When:
Sunday, March 19, 2017, 10:00 AM until 3:00 PM
Where:
Possession Sound
