Sea turtles have got to be one of my favorite things to see. Most of the time I’m just standing there and they pop up, and I’m looking at him thinking, dam what the hell are you doing here, and he’s looking at me with what looks like the same expression. He floats there for a minute looking at me and then heads off to do his thing.
Love coming across a pod of dolphins when hooked up doing 20 knots and throwing a big wake and seeing them play in it. I have never seen a creature as carmera shy as they are. We were backloading on day and they spent 30 min just playing and doing flips and stuff stright our of sea world, and I finely break away to go get my camera and when I come back they disapear. Happens every time.
No matter how many times I see them I love shooting stars, I never saw them till I went offshore and now I see them all the time.
Ill take your 3 water spouts and raise your 2. Yes I saw 5 at one time with many more before and after. I lost the picture I had were it looked like there were 2 boats running for it as one was bearing down on a jackup that it hit.
The thing I hate seeing is the wind line of 30+ knots of a front headed your way and your 100+ miles offshore and the only way back to the dock is right into it.
