SUMMARY POSTED BY JEFFREY GALLANT (GEERG) ON MONDAY JULY 20 AT 02:05 AM.

Strong winds forced us to cancel diving activities in the Baie-Comeau area again. We thus returned to Anse-de-Roche to film sea life in the Saguenay Fjord. We should resume our search for the Greenland shark in the Baie-Comeau area tomorrow (Monday).
