We drifted during the night in the southwest area of the ZTA. During the morning we were close to San Felipe to offload material from the vaquita survey, therefore the counts were just for a part of the ZTA we could observe. We stayed in that position until 18:00, and then we headed back to the ZTA. Later we did not observe any small boat activity.
