Depends how nicely you ask.

Corben, Roberts and myself re-directed a Russian cruise liner once when we 
weren't far enough off shore;-)

I suspect it was our willingness to drink vodka and Greg's foray into the crew 
bar one night that helped;-)

Hi all

This may be of interest to some of the more keen pelagic birders out there or 
at least the ones who don't like small boats!

I think it starts at 07.00 Sat morning - tomorrow.

Have to say that pelagic birding from a ship with cabin service, restaurant, 
bars and disco is always preferable to some of the boats I've been on;-)

(No offense to them either);-)

Best

Alan
