Bottle nosed dolphin certainly are. Our trawler is a veritable
dolphin magnet. We can sometimes see them coming from hundreds of
yards away.

Yep - your right - albacore.

That's because they are doing three times your speed. :-)

I was going to mention they were attracted by the smell of ripe fish,
but I didn't want to start anything. :}

Yabut, I know what he's saying. I remember well the sight of dophins
playing ahead and alongside the bow when we traveled south on the Navigator.
There's something very special about them .... I think they know us.

Just about every time we went a half mile offshore in Jax, we saw
dolphins playing with boats. Our boat, everybody's boat. Dolphins are
great pals to have out there in the ocean. We see them in the bay but
only once in a while.

To those of us "up north" that rarely see a dophin playing alongside the
boat, it was quite a thrill.

I think we picked them up off of the Carolinas, and they were ever present
all the way to south Florida.

I have a great video, taken by my brother, of our night in Titusville that
captures a bunch of dophins playing with some guy's dog in the water at the
marina.

No, I think you got that wrong. While I have done quiet a bit of
boating in the Atlantic, I prefer not to discuss the details because
all it does is stir up a lot of "oh yeah, I don't believe it".



But you don't mind discussing and often disparaging the details of others.



Pot, kettle, black....

How's the fuel consumption on the 36' Zimmerman like Lobsta' boat?
