Visit by dolphins in Sandefjord, Norway. Nauticat 38

Are these dolphins in Sandefjord, who like to play next to the boat? Today the sailboat Maja was visited by two little ones who played by the side of the ship for four hours. It was a fantastic nature experience. At first I thought they were porpoises, but after looking at the pictures, they have the long characteristic beak that dolphins have. The dolphins came up to the boat just north of Håholmen in the Sandefjord fjord. Then they came out to Rauer, where I stopped the engine and had lunch. There we lay and drifted for an hour, and drifted from Rauer to the Southeast. They played by the boat the whole time. Then they came all the way into the Sandefjord fjord again. When I pulled off outside Seilerholmen to dock, they said goodbye with a real belly flop, and went off in a different direction. Thanks for the trip! S/Y Maja is a 1982 Nauticat 38. She has her home port at Fjellvik in Sandefjord.
