Doufins too Africa



Hello guys, girls
Just finished a trip from Cadiz to Ceuta, aprox 88 miles. It was a night passage and there was a beautiful moon out.Ceuta is the northern most tip of the African continent. It belongs to Spain, to Morocco shagreens. Here you can see a few compatriots playing around in our bow wake. They are amazing creatures. One of them jumped four meters out of the water and looked at us from above. I´m not lieing, it was wild.
.We encountered a think fog back on our way across the straits returning to Gibraltar. This is a very busy shipping area with tankers, fast speed ferries, fishing vessels, you name it. Thank god for radar. I would strongly advise anybody that is serious about safety at sea to get familiar with this valuable piece of kit
