The Atlantic crossing was extremely quiet, so the less said about that the better. A few Kittiwakes and a single Golden Plover which did a lap of the ship being the highlights. Florida was a little more rewarding. The first Masked Booby of the trip was seen off the coast on the 20th of January and a stop in Cocoa Beach on the 21st allowed some decent views of the more common birds to be found along Cocoa Beach itself.
