While staying at The Tides Inn on the Rappahannock river
For the birthday’s of Tammy – Cassidy and Taylor
We decided to rent a electric boat
called the Duffy 18.
We were told where we could or could not go –
Stay in the large bays and not the main river!

The combined bays are really large and provide a lot of scenery.

The electric boat was quiet – large and comfortable
affording all of us room to sit
a table and places to put our numerous coolers and snacks.

We had the boat reserved for three hours
and we used every bit of that time
we had a roof to keep the hot sun off
and all the plastic sides were lifted up
so we had a breeze!

My son in law Marcus was the captain
but he allowed each of the three kids turns at driving!

I just relaxed and enjoyed the cruise as they all drove.
Sometimes we had a breeze
out in the open bay –
but once we went up the coves
it disappeared!



At one point we came across a couple dolphins
and we would tag along with them.
Here the twins are on the lookout for them.
This went on for about a half hour and made for a exciting time!

Looks like a great way to spend some quality time on the water. Beautiful boat. Is that fresh water? Looks like it, but didn’t think dolphins were ever in fresh water.

Judy Benson Mark – it is what is called Brackish water – a combination of both fresh and ocean.
And dolphins do come up waterways from the ocean. Not sure how far – but I have seen them before in other places. Thank you for the comment.
