    Lauren should teach a class for wannabe UA-camrs. She has found a great formula, from sailing, to diving, to shore excursions, to boat maintenance. It's all interesting. She also does a great job with editing and with music and capturing the beauty of nature. And she recognizes her own physical beauty and shares that with us, while always keeping things tasteful and appropriate. I imagine there will be a surge in subscribers soon, and she will hit one million before she knows it. I hope to be around to celebrate that day. It will be hard earned, and well deserved.

    Hi Lauren, watching your scrubbing effort I couldn't help to add this comment. While pushing on the hull under water with your spatula, the reactive force is pushing you away make it harder to do the work. A good solution is to loop a line under the hull, secure it to cleats or life lines on both sides tight, and then hold on to that to prevent the reactive force pushing you away. I used to clean the SOG instrument wheel just in front of the keel when it fouled up and stopped working.

      We are lucky in some respects, living in the West of Scotland. Lash to a harbour wall at high tide wait for the tide, dry out and scrub. Very often two tides, turn the boat between tides. Now, if I could sail in blue warm waters with little tide I would give it a go.👍

    Don't you just love diving on a reef? My favorite scuba dives were hovering 3' above a reef and watch all the turf battles, seeking a mate, guarding their nests, etc. When you first get down there you are in a very aggressive position being horizontal and they are afraid of you. Then they figure out you're not going to attack so they go about their business. Then they figure you are their protector and like you. You are bigger than anything else around them They get mad when you leave because they are losing their protection. Loved the underwater videos. The dinner looked fun. You have some truly great friends. You left the boat in great hands. Cats have been known to attack when they see things are under attack. Loved the video, Lauren.

    Water is gorgeous, your boat sure picked up a good bit of free riders below the water. I will second, running a line up and over around the hull. Gives you a hand hold and puts more energy to to scrub hand . You got a workout
    You are looking happy and living good. As a grandpa, I feel like, I have to check in on you often. You really are an awesome lady😊
    Getting off the boat, and enjoying a bit of recoup time does wonders for the soul.
    Awesome you are❤🎉😂😊

    Great episode really enjoyed the dive with y’all that used to be what I loved as a kid growing up in the Florida Keys I used a hookah rig a lot just working the reefs and made a lot of good money cleaning boats and recovering lost anchors and such. Wish I could go to Greece but I refuse to fly anywhere anymore and it’s too far to swim so you and some very lucky soul go and enjoy, I’ll just watch the video when it comes out. God bless you my young friend and thank you.

  • @aquaholic3
    @aquaholic3 9 місяців тому

    Lauren, another wonderful video. Suggestion, when wanting to scrub the bottom of the boat, since it is so much hard work to keep kick to keep pressure on the hull, one thing I do is drop a line on the opposite side of the boat, then while underwater, I go grab it and hold it while scraping the opposite side of the hull. Keeping a little tension while holding that line makes it less tiring than kicking all the time. Plus make the task faster! 😊 Glad you’ve been showing BVI locations as we are heading back there in March 2025. We have not been backing there since the devastating hurricanes almost wiped out everything. 😢
