About this record
- Supporting evidence
- https://blog.lobosonda.com/28-12-2014-exceptional/ — Trip date comes from the article title, separate from its 29 December upload. The body does not name the harbour; Calheta would be an inference from the operator's base. One seal is reported, without an individual name.
