: We woke up at 4 am or so to see the eclipse. Unfortunately, there were low clouds everywhere. I don't think we were going to see it anyway, but there were no special maneuvers by the boat. So, it just got dark for a couple of minutes, and went back to bed. There was the briefest glimpse of the late partial phase out the window.
