点评:Our family of 10 booked a 2 hour dolphin tour with Vic. We had an amazing time. He made us feel right at home on his boat, making sure he found out what we wanted to see and planned our trip accordingly. I became resigned, however, to not finding any dolphins as the two hours of our allotted time was nearing the end. After all, we had seen/held crabs and learned about the crabbing business, stopped by a little uninhabited island to stick our toes in the sand and wade out on the sandbar, and had a nice visit with our host who is a gracious and knowledgeable seaman with lots of stories about the area. Besides that, Vic gave us the chance to steer the boat. So we already had a wonderful time as our 2 hours neared an end. BUT THEN, news came over his radio that there were dolphins sighted near the bridge so Vic put it into high gear and we made a beeline for the area. What a treat! We stayed there for a LOONG time with the dolphins swimming and sometimes leaping right next to our boat. We were so excited and Vic was obviously enjoying seeing US enjoy the dolphins. So, by the time we got back to our cars, we had a 3 hour tour. Now, I know Vic can't always do that...after all, he usually has other guests to serve. We happened to be the last tour of his day and we really lucked out. Absolutely fantastic day and wonderful end to our visit to OBX. Thank you Vic for a great tour and thanks to Ally, Vic's wife, for the warm, handmade quilts we enjoyed when we got chilly out on the water. I highly recommend Old Man Charters. You won't be disappointed.
翻译:我们一家十口预订了Vic的2小时海豚之旅。我们玩得非常开心。Vic让我们感觉宾至如归,他确保了解我们想看什么,并据此安排行程。然而,随着两个小时的行程接近尾声,我开始觉得可能看不到海豚了。毕竟,我们已经看到了螃蟹,还摸了摸螃蟹,了解了捕蟹的运作方式,在一个无人居住的小岛上停留,把脚趾伸进沙子里,在沙洲上涉水而行,还和我们的船长——一位热情好客、知识渊博的水手——聊得很开心,他给我们讲了很多关于这片海域的故事。除此之外,Vic还让我们有机会掌舵。所以,在两个小时即将结束的时候,我们已经度过了一段美好的时光。但是,就在这时,他的无线电里传来消息,说桥附近发现了海豚,于是Vic立刻加速,我们朝着海豚出海的方向飞驰而去。真是个惊喜!我们在那里待了很久很久,海豚就在我们船边游泳,有时还会跃出水面。我们兴奋极了,Vic 显然也很高兴看到我们这么享受与海豚的互动。所以,当我们回到车上时,已经度过了三个小时的旅程。我知道 Vic 不可能总是带我们这么久……毕竟他通常还要接待其他客人。我们碰巧是他当天的最后一班,真是太幸运了。这绝对是精彩的一天,也为我们的外滩群岛之旅画上了完美的句号。感谢 Vic 的精彩讲解,也感谢 Vic 的妻子 Ally 为我们准备的温暖的手工被子,让我们在水上感到寒冷时倍感舒适。我强烈推荐 Old Man Charters,绝对不会让你失望。
