We were lucky to be at the right place at the right time when 2 HUGE manatees made their way into the marina looking for fresh water. We haven't had the chance to swim with them yet but this was an incredible up close experience. We also sail a bit and chill a bit and tackle a repair job on the MacGregor - a problem we unfortunately created but knew how to fix. THANK YOU for subscribing and we'll see you in 2 weeks.

our channel takes an easygoing

lighthearted approach to enjoying life

one bikini at a time

so if you're up for some sailing and

other fun

then we're happy to have you aboard

we post new videos every couple weeks so

hit that subscribe button and we'll see

her next time

and also check out the links below we

have extended videos on vimeo

and we also have a patreon page thanks

to everyone for watching

previously on saline and fun we got

super lucky

and spent some time in some of the

bluest water we've seen in the keys

it's not typically like this not this

turquoise color so we had a blast

spending some time on the beach and also

doing some sailing

you're looking this way and then you

turn and you look out and you go

completely speechless oh my goodness

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

so if you watch our channel you know we

love the wildlife

in florida and really everywhere we

travel and this was such an amazing

experience

if you are washing your boat or washing

out your dishes or clothes or whatever

the manatees come up to the marinas

because they're looking for fresh water

so they'll try to drink right off of the

the docks there and you get to

experience them

these animals get over 400 pounds with

the largest on record being over

1600 pounds and the best time to see

them is from november through

april with a real population swell from

december

through february so if you want to see

them make sure you go in the winter

[Music]

these animals often get injured by boat

props

and sometimes there are signs posted

that let you know

that manatees are in the area but even

if they're not

just be cognizant be aware especially

when you're going through shallow areas

where they like to hang out

be on the lookout for them because we

don't want to injure these gentle giants

[Music]

you ready to set sail

[Music]

here's an example of a new camera and i

hit the wrong button due to the glare on

the screen in the sun

i wanted to give the viewers some more

blue water sailing

everything but the water is blue in this

clip

it's the blue man show the blue

the blue crew

[Music]

largo miami

fort lauderdale charleston

[Music]

it's like 80 degrees but there's a 16

mile an hour

cool wind 20 mile an hour

[Music]

this one

[Music]

[Music]

so thank you

[Music]

i usually sleep in the v-berth but the

mac actually has a lot of nice sleeping

areas around it and this time i did need

to move my bed

to the dining area and this is why

so in a moment of clarity

weakness mental weakness i thought it

would be good to modify this locker for

a larger anchor

so i opened up either side and did all

kinds of

stuff that i regretted we ended up

getting an

anchor roller so we didn't need to store

a large anchor in

evidence of my bad decision is still

haunting us today

with leak at least getting past the

fiberglass

that drips on here because i sleep in

the front berth we'll have to show you

the evolution of our sleeping

we used to both sleep in the front berth

but captain 6'3

i am 5'7 those are pretty tall people

for the

v birth so anyway i'm going to level off

any

any unevenness with with bondo

cardboard i gotta stop worrying i'm

gonna stop trying to wear these glasses

this will be the new base of the anchor

locker

i'm going to coat it in epoxy and then

i'm going to lay fiberglass on top of

that

so it'll be watertight okay how much was

this

uh each of these thingies 40 something

40 something for both of them and

how much of it do you anticipate using

for this project all of it

all of it what the hell

having to spend 80

bucks to repair it i don't want you to

sleep

get wet when you sleep i was dry before

you did all this

are you planning on fiberglassing the

whole boat this is a ton of fiberglass

my spare roll it's your spare roll 1708

bi-axle

so it has has a mat here and it has 45

so it's super strong it's like three

layers of fiberglass in one

okay i mean i'm glad you're fixing it

but

what a waste of time and money thank you

well i'm happily installed in the

v-berth again and the table is open to

chart our course but first we'll do a

little stop-over on sandbar

the captain loves to show his mcgregor

the extremely shallow draft on it

so he can pull the boat up to just about

anywhere

[Music]

so

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]
