Thank you, and God Bless You and that precious whale.

I'm in tears.

What an amazing 9 days, it was truly beyond any of our wildest expectations!! So many beautiful encounters and the icing on the cake, a successful whale rescue! Many many thanks to Chad, Vanessa, and the rest of the hard working Nai’a crew, everyone was so awesome!! We will definitely be back!

Having been with the Nai'a on a Tonga voyage, I'm well aware of their devotion to these great mammals. This is an amazing example of their commitment and courage. Congratulations and thank you to all.

What a wonderful story. So sad that it had happened, but so grateful for your successful efforts.

Venessa, that is an excellent and detailed account of how to successfully effect a whale rescue under very trying conditions. I have no doubt you were at the forefront and led the rescue effort. Well done! From your first hand account there are some valuable lessons and do’s and dont’s. Worthy of publication in a journal I think. Great effort and well done to you and Chad and Big Mo and the team. I’m book for Tonga for next July. See you then!

Gorgeous pics!

Words can not even express the magic of this trip. The crew was amazing. I wanted to take them all home with me and play guitars all night. And yes I would find some Kava! Thank you all so much for this experience.

It was one of the most amazing time in my life, thank you Vanessa, Chad, Big - Mo, Suli and all other lovely crews for your hospitality. And please come and look for another whale pictures in my page :
