非常好，非常值得參加
非常值得，船上還放音樂，還有點心，飲料，真的是非常值得，一定要參加，我們來紐西蘭，就這個行程印象最深刻，第一次坐帆船，看海豚跟我們游，真的非常推薦。

How wonderful it is !
乘著風出海，可以看到小海豚，幸運的話還有海獅和企鵝?，雖然海風很冷但在船上喝著熱飲尋找這些可愛生物，船長這一趟很值得！

Cool experience
Really unique! Of all the boats we were on in New Zealand this boat was the most interesting! Loved the back story. History lesson was great! Seeing dolphins - unreal! They even have extra jackets when guests get cold. Only thing is I saw the deckhand chuck the coffee grounds in the ocean. Not sure if they could have been disposed of differently.

Book this!
Though the thrux of the idea is to see Hector’s Dolphins, and we did, Fox II is much more of an experience than that. Beautiful boat, small group, fabulous varied commentary about Akaroa as we unhurriedly floated along the water. The sails went up, the motors off and we just absorbed the unique experience. Three hours later we drifted off onto land totally relaxed. The crew of two looked after us really well, no fuss, just there if and when you needed them, whilst hoisting sails and doing everything else that needed doing. We’re so glad we didn’t choose the catamaran.
