Message: <blockquote data-quote="Steve Dudley" data-source="post: 1853598" data-attributes="member: 5172">Boat trip off north coastI mentioned in the earlier post above the possibility of running boat trips in 2011. I am now in active discussions and just wanted to know if this is something that folk would like to do. I've had a handle of positive responses, but before committing I want to gauge it with you guys - those who have been and those who are planning to go. Is this something you would have done this year or would like to do in the future? I don't know the exact price yet but I think we'll be looking at around €35-40pp for a 3hr trip out of Molivos. Hopefully these trips will be a real chance to observe Scopoli's and Yelkouan Shearwaters at much closer quarters than land-based watching, plus we would also hope to attract Audouin's Gulls (yes, we will be chumming!) and who knows, maybe even a Mediterranean Storm-petrel (not on Lesvos List but almost certainly occur in Aegean waters) or the rare Monk Seal.Comments please! Is this the sort of lesvos experience you would like in the future?</blockquote>
