No doubt attracted by the submariners’ dolphin insignia.

Recently I have discovered the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trusts app, Whale Track, which gives an interactive map with recent sighting reports on the West Coast including the Clyde, and an identification guide for those like me that confuse our various different types of porpoise and dolphin, and also it allows users to update sighting information.
Available from your usual app store.

What’s the open hatch on the side for?

That's the dolphin flap to let them back in again when they've had their exercise

That looks a whole lot more fun for the dolphins than riding the bow wave of my little tub.

It’s not an open hatch, it looks like they’ve lost the grille that should be there.

Is that another submarine about to run aground ? Or just the result of a long telephoto lens
Dolphins on the Clyde not unusual - and plenty of porpoises, minkie whales etc.
A few years ago there were some other rarer whales who got stuck at top of Loch Long and would not exit - some concerns were expressed that could be underwater noise from the Naval bases scaring them from passing out to sea. Also had been at top of Gareloch when I was there.

Yeah weapons of mass destruction should definitely be a bit more pink.

I didn't think Boeing made submarines - at least. not deliberately
I've a vague memory of a film about a pink submarine - late 50s, perhaps?
Ah, Operation Petticoat

Perhaps the dolphins were released out of the hole, new secret weapons
