We started the day on Georges Bank and it was very foggy. We tried to run out of the fog and it did get better. We saw striped and spotted dolphins today.
The pictures are of spotted dolphins. They develop the spots as they age and they lose the pink coloration on their bellies. The dorsal fin on the front dolphin was probably cut by a cookie cutter shark and the mark makes it unique and potentially identifiable in the future.
We ended the day near the Balanus seamount.
