On board Silurian
Most weeks April through October she is either monitoring the waters of the west coast of Scotland for whales, dolphins, and porpoises, or serving as a floating classroom for one of the many Argyll island primary and secondary schools. Read the log below to find out what Silurian and her crew have been up to each week and all about the whales, dolphins and porpoises they spot!

Today 34 Salen Primary School students from P1 to 7 learnt about Silurian as a research vessel and also about local marine life. Here are some comments from the students:
I liked your boat and I learned a lot. I won’t forget. Bethan Today Salen Primary School saw crabs and lobsters. Claire I learned that crabs have hairy legs. Daisy The two things I learned are that hermit crabs are small and sea urchins have legs. Saffron I liked touching a lobster. Robbie I learnt that hermit crabs live in shells. Scott I enjoyed today. Hannah I liked touching the crabs. Murdo I enjoyed today because I touched an urchin. Sarah I liked the lobster and I got to touch the lobsters back. Matthew I learnt that a lobster has legs.
