I cant help but share this memory from 4 years ago!
I think this was one of the most exciting encounters I've had on the water, probably due to the closeness of the animals and especially the unexpectedness!!
The most amazing thing is that the video is unfiltered and no-one slipped a swear word!
Hang in and watch the whole video to see the best bit!

How great are these sketches by Scott Wilson?!!
He and some family came onboard Sootychaser recently.
It was his first visit to Quarantine Island Kamau Taurua since he was toddler! His grandparents leased the island from 1947-1957 and so they have Alot of history here.
His grandfather ran the ferry service at that time too, between Port Chalmers, Portobello and Quarantine Island.
He skippered the harbour ferries, Elsie Evans and the Kiwi.
If you'd like to see more of Scott's work you can view them on Instagram
