Tour at 13.00

Report from Hafsúlan; We sailed out from Hafnafjörður in very very nice weather. Slight swell but this didn´t seem to affect anyone today and the sun was out shining on the mountains and the birds. We sailed along way but only a flock of gannets was observed out at sea the rest of the birds was mainly in the harbour including Red breasted Mergansers and a couple of Great Northern Divers. We offered our passengers complimentary tickets which are good for two years in the hope they will have better luck next time.
