ATLANTA - The whale sharks are the kings of the 6-million-gallon tank, their presence palpable even before they emerge from the murky darkness like massive star cruisers in a science fiction film.
Icebergs, tropical heat and sleeping quarters the size of coffins hardly sound like selling points for a Disney cruise. But those are some of the elements on the voyage skipper Paul Cayard and his crew will be taking during the next eight months.
This cruise in company from Plymouth to the Algarve is a great way to head south, whether to the Med or onwards to the Canaries and an Atlantic crossing.
