"Showing Off"

Wow! What an amazing couple of days for dolphin's in Mandurah onboard with Bouvard Cruises. Simon and Kat the crew onboard "Super Cat" have been lucky to introduce our passengers to two of our local pods of dolphins.

The 3pm cruise on Monday had a pod of 8 dolphins splashing, twirling and playing in the boats wake. The dolphins were turning over and swimming belly up showing off to passengers onboard. Tuesday was another great day for dolphins, Nikky and her pod of about 6 dolphins came over to "Super Cat" in the Mandurah Estuary to say hello on the 1pm cruise. We soon saw that they were in a particulary playful mood so we challenged them to what we call a "run" which is when we speed the boat up and the dolphins often chase the boat and play in its wake, and we were not dissapointed. The dolphins played in the wake jumping and twirling, showing off as passengers watched closely with cameras ready. They put on a great show jumping right up out of the water and splashing everyone with water.
"Dancing Dolphin" hasn't missed out on their share of the dolphins either. Nikky and the pod also spent some time with the "Dancing Dolphin" this time playing on the bow wave. Kim and Coel the crew onboard made sure everyone got a good look at the pod spending time with them in the estuary both crew and passengers absolutely loved it and got some good photos aswell.
