The first job we had this morning was to scrub Pelagic's deck in an attempt to clear off a layer of Sheathbill poo, they really are disgusting birds! Their poo is a nasty green colour that not only stinks but stains everything that it touches, nasty stuff! Our anchorage at Salisbury Plain got crowded when another yacht, Xplore, and the expedition cruise ship 'National Geographic Explorer' both arrived to visit the king penguin rookery.
After breakfast the Pelagic crew all went ashore to join the red coated tourists for a king penguin photo festival. About 9am the paddlers came past the beach and landed for a few moments so that Matias could video a quick interview with them, they then continued on in the direction of Wales Head. Pelagic followed after lunch, and moved along the coast to Right Whale Bay where we are now anchored for the evening.
We have noticed that the density of fur seals is increasing as we move further north along the coast. There are very few females ashore yet but the males have all set up their pitches ashore. Most beaches in this area are crowded with angry smelly fur seals and landing anywhere is quite a challenge.
