FIRST TIME HAND HARVESTING SEA SCALLOPS (catch, cook & boat tour)

FIRST TIME HAND HARVESTING SEA SCALLOPS (catch, cook & boat tour)

Sailors are generally a friendly and sympathetic bunch.  And by sympathetic, I mean to the woes of boat life and the toll that weeks of life on the hard can take.  So, when our neighbors invited us to take a break and come aboard for an adventure, we didn’t hesitate.

We take our first plunge into the frigid New Zealand sea and go on a mission to collect our lunch from the bottom of the ocean floor!  Plus we finish our day off with a tour of their 52′ Chincogan Catamaran. It’s a beautiful (and chilly) adventure.

Surprisingly, the gonads were just as delightful as the scallop muscle itself.  I did a little research and couldn’t find a solid conclusion as to why we’ve never been served them before.  Other than it doesn’t freeze well.  But, if there is a restauranteur or commercial fisherman that knows the answer, please fill us in.

Huge thanks to Rick and Vicki for the invite and for allowing us to bring all of you along for the ride.
