Has anyone been seeing the manta at Francis or elsewhere lately?

We were there a few weeks ago and didn't see the manta ray anywhere. We did see a *big* southern sting ray at Maho that I thought at first might be the manta ray.

I think they only come around when the water is relatively cooler. By this time of the year, they seek cooler areas to feed. They have the same time-table in St Martin.
