What this video covers
The crew of Supernova spends time in Marigot Bay, St. Martin, performing boat maintenance and testing new Sublu Vapor Pro underwater scooters. The scooters feature four speed settings, hot-swappable batteries, and a safety feature that limits top speed when battery levels drop to 25 percent.2:19 The crew uses the scooters to reach a floating restaurant and free-dive to depths of 30 meters.5:29 Additionally, the crew attempts to replace a leaking 35mm dinghy plug with a new unit, but the replacement fails to fit, leaving the original taped-up plug in use.8:02
Transitioning to land-based exploration, the crew rents a car to hike the highest point on St. Martin.11:47 They encounter wild vervet monkeys, which are non-native to the island and likely introduced from Africa via St. Kitts during colonial times.20:20 The hike includes paths near cell towers and the Loterie Farm, a private property offering zip lines and hiking trails.14:22 The crew concludes their excursion with views of the island’s towns and anchorages, including the location of Supernova, before returning to the boat for sunset.24:08
