Geocache Description:


Seafaring 🌊

This cache is NOT in the sea or at the posted coords.

The Red Herrings are certainly seafaring denizens of the deep. They only come ashore now & then just to provide you with a little entertainment and fun- and to hide a cache or two. They show up here & there in different puzzles so that you don't get bored. Have they shown up here- you betcha!! You'll just have to figure out where they are and where they aren't. But solving the puzzle shouldn't be too hard.
