"Passion"
8:00 am: dolphin sighting a ways off. Captain Mark turns off the engine to lay low for a bit before proceeding and can't get it restarted. The new electric motor has an auto shut off that needs resetting but it's not cooperating. Eventually, we are resuced by "Maui Explorer" and all 21 of us transfer boats to join an all japanese tourist boat owned by the same tour company. We are one shy of the 48 person coast guard maximum.
"Maui Explorer"

9:10 am: move to turtle bay
9:50 am: final reef area
10:45am: head back to the harbor, lunch is waiting
