Here's the first video I've seen from Heather Goldstone's WGBH team who were with us watching whales just north of Cape Cod on Friday, July 11:

Along with the guest oceanographers, Joe Roman and Sylvia Earle, one of our "38th Voyagers" team, Anne DiMonti, is interviewed extensively as a cetacean expert. Heather Goldstone notes in this piece that there wasn't much celebration when we saw the first whale, the lone Minke whale, from the Morgan at 11:06 am EDT, July 11, 2014. I would agree with that. It was hard to recognize at the time that this was a key moment in the voyage... but, of course, I spell out the date and time now in exact detail to emphasize just that.
