Thanks. I have no idea if Witless Bay is any worse. Could always reserve a seat for my wife and then try to get a seat for myself at the dock if conditions look good. I did okay on an Orca-watching trip in the San Juan Islands north of October, and whale-watching off of Maui, but on a trip to the Great Barrier Reef, which was supposed to be on a catamaran, we were switched to a solid hull boat, and boy, did I suffer.
