What this video covers

Cleaning a boat's bottom in the Tobago Keys requires caution, as park rangers prohibit scrubbing in protected waters and barnacles pose a significant infection risk.3:16 After scraping the hull of Wind Therapy, the crew experienced a severe infection from a barnacle cut that required a week of ciproflexum antibiotics to treat.4:28 The crew recommends wearing gloves during any underwater maintenance to prevent similar injuries.4:02

While anchored in Saline Bay at Meru, the crew found the anchorage excessively roly and relocated to Bequia.4:43 During the transit, they maintained a speed of six knots in 10 knots of true wind.5:32 In Bequia, the crew participated in a local hike and purchased fresh lobster from a local fisherman named Flex, who cleaned and halved the catch for immediate freezing.15:13 Additionally, the co-host attempted to overcome a long-standing fear of scuba diving by using a Nomad surface-supplied air system with assistance from a friend.10:44
