we just arrived in the Bahamas baby it wasn't long
before we found a beautiful secluded beach and jumped in this is Paradise
I know it's very warm color's amazing
it's not often you find yourself on what seems to be your very own Island unless
you're in the Berry Islands let's do it do you believe we sailed here I know it's beautiful
welcome to Lazy gecko sailing
looking for something exciting free and real if so you found the right place
[Music]
meet Calypso our floating home it's not working we're sailing her all over and taking you for
the ride please click on subscribe so you don't miss any of the fun and running from the law
I hope they won't shoot me
wrong yeah they look gnarly out there yeah no this is the east side of the
berries I mean you can anchor over here but you gotta have a calm day
it's pretty sweet you can literally walk out from the beach and go snorkel I love it the Tide's
starting to come in now it was time to get Reese in the water too he is after all a cruising boy
wow
[Music]
Reese is almost six now he's lived aboard for most of his life and we think that's
pretty awesome beaches are totally his thing he could spend all day in the water
foreign
one day when you look back at this know that
Mom and Dad love you very much and we loved playing together
it was time to go back to the boat and get some rest for tomorrow's Adventure [Music]
you have to go off the beaten path right now we're headed to shark beach
zombies here's shark Beach shark Creek located at the southernmost point of the
island is a mangrove Creek that separates Great Harbor Key from
Haynes key the point between shark beach and Sheldon Beach it's obviously low tide
it's kind of cool I imagine there's sharks out there that's where it got its name from
what do you think yeah very green water yeah you want to find a Shell at Shell and Beach
you did what kind of show was it it's like cold I didn't I just saw like the outside of it it's
pretty beautiful and just dig into the sand oh let's go find it myself there's a little
piece of a shell broke let's look for a different one somebody's in the islands here like there's
no like there's no glass or shells as much or anything yeah we gotta look I guess when we're
anchored this one down too long with some shells yeah but that one that worked for me Wham you
found a clam keep it keep it I'll keep it I trust you locals also refer to it as Shell Beach because
it has crystal clear water with beautiful sand and lots of seashells it also has a ton of sea life
[Music] foreign
[Music]
shifted it away let's put it back you hear anything maybe he died but maybe you're not maybe
okay hold the Sand Dollar gently in the palm of your and observe the spines moving is still alive
absolutely loose Lucy spines after they die so let's see
oh yeah see so when they're a lot I don't know if they can see but there's like a
little see they're very dark and there's little sponge on the side so this one's
dead yeah so this one's dead so we can keep it yeah I think so cool yay [Music] oh no
I need you to shove it back in yeah thank you that's exciting our first sand dollar [Music]
this is pretty weird we're on a level like Island where the water is we're just at low tide there's
a little little guy something's in there pushing that sand out like that oh you're still moving
it's moving right now yeah the lug worm or sand worm is a large marine worm this is something new
these coiled castings are seen on a beach at low tide but the animal itself is rarely
seen it's crazy that this place is full of these worms lug worms feed on organic
materials such as microorganisms present in the sediment you got one
normally dispens me outside do you see anything and it's brown the whole thing
is brown like this so this one's dead look at that that's a nice one
on the hunt for sand dollars will we find more to take home you know it
[Music]
thanks for the update Captain this was a fun day searching the beach
for treasures and discovering new things now it was time to get these
sand dollars all fixed up [Music] okay let's put them on top of each other
uh it's all right go ahead still be good yeah it'd be fun we love crafts when we
can mix them in with something we've discovered that's even better what did you think Reese I
thought it was awesome you have to put them in fresh water as soon as you can and then
the water will start to turn brown and you just keep doing that until the water stays
fairly clear then we'll put them in a solution of bleaching water and let them sit for five
to ten minutes remove from the bleach rinse thoroughly in fresh water and let them dry
so uh how are we doing we're doing pretty good we've rinsed them twice with water 20 minutes
each and then we got put we bleach in there yep so we filled it up with water put them back in
there we're gonna add a little bit of bleach and we're gonna leave this for five minutes
and what it's supposed to do is clean them all out and it'll help turn them more white
set time for five minutes Mom hey Siri set my timer for five minutes [Music] are you doing
that for Instagram oh because I'm doing this for Instagram how's it going can we put some bleach in
there we have to wait for five minutes the timer's going we just GoPro it is nice yeah the idea is to
make them more white using the bleach but you can't use too much bleach because it makes them
um like softer easier to break you excited and I'm gonna crack One open there's like little
birth shells yeah are you gonna crack One open a medium one it's on yeah can you see me yes my face
yeah this one will serve your head but it's okay okay all right good this is gonna be awesome
so the shelves it's been five minutes we're gonna take them out be careful there's bleach
on it look a lot wider don't worry camera don't worry it's it's she'll wash your hands it smells
like bleach do you smell that oh so bleach smells like I'm surprised they don't flow
okay you know because they just like they just go to the bottom all right
we've taken our shelves out now we're gonna take this water out of there and then we're gonna put
them back in fresh water to rinse the bleach off and then we'll put them in the sun to dry and then
I can break finally my one medium open yes my mom will probably not break any open house yeah
all right now we're putting them back in fresh water to get all the bleach off yes how long
does it take five minutes well maybe we'll leave them in here for 20 minutes hey Sherry hey Sherry
she only responds to my voice hey Siri set a timer for 20 minutes okay
okay perfect it's all right yeah did it in the sun okay let's do this camera oh that piece for me
I don't know
good job all right you'd like to crack One open yes but we have tomorrow we do
have to harden the other ones but we'll crack this one open okay since it's already broke
all right go ahead and crack
oh yeah look little birds so look in here that's where they are in there they hang
out in there when you shake it that's what you hear like listen they're in there the way that
we're going to harden them is put white glue down here equal parts of white glue to water
and then we'll mix it together yeah ready to harden yours yeah yeah pick up your shelf
and you're gonna dab your shell with this sponge okay don't hold your Shelly hold it
it's very gentle right here yeah so now they they'll dry with the glue on them
and then they should be hardened and you get some sand dollars it's cool right yeah
see this one right here the circuit breaker when I say I want you to turn on and then you're gonna
then you're gonna turn it off but not yet uh when I when I'm ready I'm gonna have you turn
on and then we'll turn it right off okay we woke up at like four Britney woke me up at like five
in the morning she's like something's running and I came up to the starboard Hall where the
build stuff is and I could hear the bilge pump running like non-stop so we popped the thing
up there was no water it was just running so obviously you had to run a cycle it got stuck
on so the float out of magic got stuck up so what we're gonna do is open it up and take a
look at the slope but show you how it's running all right reason you ready yeah you're gonna
turn that build swap on and do what I say just turn it back off okay go ahead and turn it on
so it's just running close obviously stuck up all right turn off nice job actually yeah I actually
got scared so you did great just checking off all that water yeah so this sucks up all the water
that gets in here we have there's a hot water pump on this side of quick and all these little
fuel lines I mean so all these little water lines that we have they're like these sweet disks and
sweet uh quick disconnect types the only thing is they tend to leak a little bit when they get hot
and cold so the water heater on this side tends to leak it drips the air conditioner from our cabin
the master cabin drips this condensation into this bilge so it's it does constantly fluctuate
but being that there's an engine in here you know you're gonna get some nasty stuff sometimes some
sludge whatever else and that just gunks it up this hasn't been cleaned since we bought the boat
probably ever honestly you can see there's already stuff that's the float in there [Music] foreign
oh yeah look at that this should be free-flowing look at that babe
oh my gosh is this all crap so this is probably something good to do every once
in a while obviously we have not done that see this is the flow right here
see it's all sticky so that could easily get stuck up you know mm-hmm so we'll do is get like some
soap toothbrush and I'm gonna clean this thing out leave the messy jobs to Jeremiah he'll dig
right in he plans to clean this neglected pump up and reinstall it keep your pumps clean people I
have a new one of these I actually have a couple of them that John had purchased just in case he
said they were discontinuing and that maybe they maybe they got rid of the float one and they won't
electronic electronic only I don't know but so we bought a couple of them with some plaid but
if I can get this one to work that would be much better because then I can keep my spare you want
to use that toothbrush after yeah what happened to our build pump and I'm not using a chili okay
that looks pretty nasty definitely a job for Dad all right we'll see it looked like it was down
I don't know but we'll find out I am here as the camera girl and the helping hand that's my job
comes back on now the little filter's lined up down there
and it basically just snaps in its Plate Place
come on then um is some other type of failure but if it stays off then it's
good all right Reese you wanna do it yep that's what I was up here for us
it says this one again turn turn on go for it okay it's on
didn't work just leave it on yeah so it obviously has some of the failure
so what I'm gonna do is place it with a new one if I'm gonna take that new one apart and take a
look and see what it looks like inside before I put it in there oh you can turn it off now
so it's Superior huh darn it [Music]
coming up on the lazy geckos I'm gonna try to submerge it in water we're going down
prepared mom called soldier's key there's a lightning storm you're gonna go for it huh
you're always giving me crap the winds are blowing toiletries snacks do you
