Very cool!

On my last delivery, we had dolphins riding the bow for close to an hour. Very smart and intelligent animals. On a few occasions, they would pop up and hydroplane so that over half of their body was above sea level, but still beneath the water, way cool. Watching them roll over and make eye contact with you is so humbling.

humbling is exactly the right word...they are so intelligent it really feels strange to make eye contact...i have had only one wild encounter and I was aspetto in about 35 ft and a pod passed right over me and one small fry swung down and did a quick loop around me, just made eye contact and was back to the family...that moment shifted my perspective on many things.


very cool video
