    This is my kind of water. beautiful, amazing, clear water. We use to have a small 16Ft motor boat we went fishing for Salmon out in Puget Sound, Seattle, Wash. I didn't do much fishing. I read a book, enjoyed the peacefulness on the water, breath in the fresh salt air. We we're summer boaters...ha ha. Then sadly we got to busy with keeping up with the kids in sports and it just sit. So we sold it. I can see why you didn't want to leave. I don't want your video to end. :)

    It’s true - the best of life is often what happens when you things don’t go as you plan.

    Hey guys! Thanks for a great video! I can't believe how clear that water is, it's beautiful. Grace you have a wonderful voice for narrating and a lovely style to go with it. You're comfortable to listen to, if that makes sense, anyway I like it. I saw Bill in a Delos video a few weeks back and said as much to Kazza when I commented. Congratulations on 50 videos !! That's quite a milestone and you should be proud of yourselves. I'm so proud of you I'm heading over to your Patreon page. I gotta see a guy about a thing : ) Keep up the good work !!

      Small town on ragged island, population is about 40 or so. Mostly construction workers rebuilding after a hurricane

    Thanks for another great episode, and congrats on 50!! I've got to ask while snorkeling how do you get such amazing color on your go pro? If you are using one, I've messed and messed with the settings and it continues to get washed out... Do tell! Thanks again.

    • @CalicoSkiesSailing
      @CalicoSkiesSailing  4 года назад +1

      So glad you liked it and thanks! We use the GoPro 7 and I did some color editing in Adobe mostly playing with the curves to add red to counteract the blue/green and some black emphasis for more contrast but I think the biggest factor is the lighting underwater and the clarity of the water during the dive because I have a fair share of washed out footage as well. It was super sunny the day we dove and the water was very very clear. What camera do you use?

      @@CalicoSkiesSailing, thank you for that info! We are still using a GoPro 4 so Im sure there is some quality difference in the software. We wont be upgrading until we get out on our own boat next year. There are so many good deals on used ones on craigslist and marketplace I will probably go that route when Im ready to upgrade to a newer model.

    So what do you think about the Raggeds with a 6’ draft. Thxs

    • @CalicoSkiesSailing
      @CalicoSkiesSailing  4 года назад

      It's def doable, we were hanging with a couple boats drawing 6'+ in the raggeds and they were fine. Bumped the bottom a bit more than we did drawing 4'2" but it soft sand :)
