An adorable sea lion hitches a lift on the back of a boat, off the west coast of Mexico.

"We went Marlin fishing for the first time in Cabo. We had a successful trip and while we were heading in, I noticed a bunch of people taking pictures of our boat," said the filmer.

" We couldn't figure out what was going on until my husband noticed a large sea lion following our boat quite closely in the wake. He offered him one of our bait fish, and low and behold, he jumped aboard and rode in the boat with us."

It was the "memory of a lifetime," they added.
