I think I saw you guys out there around 3pm. Heard you hooting and hollering and at first thought you'd hooked up, then saw your friend hanging around for what seemed like forever and eventually heard you guys rev-up and head south at a high rate of speed.

Truly unbelievable. Glad he didn't decide to do the same to my Revo.

Yea! We saw a HUUUUUUUGE gray off in the distance. Actually three or four but none of them were social whatsoever. Kept a good distance after that haha. We had a grey blow up in us in kayaks three or four years ago. Nothing will humble you faster!

I feel your childish excitement too, just watching your video. That's wonderful. Seems your friend wanted to snuggle.

I always feel happy and in awe of the beauty of nature when whales or porpoises pass near my kayak. Sharks, not so much.

That's cool...I might not have been so overjoyed with that in a Kayak though.

That's incredible, the video and editing are awesome. I love it when those huge whales come by close. That would be a lot closer than I'm used to, being at least 25 feet away is good. Just under would defitely make me feel uneasy after a while.

That was absolutely unbelievable. Great video and commentary. I have been seeing at least 4 to 6 whales every time out in LJ on my kayak lately. I try to get close but most seem to just avoid me. I had one last year glide right under my PA14 while it was on its back. It was a very cool experience.
