We stopped in a marina in Titusville, FL where Julia and Josh drove over to take us out to dinner and bring us a new, larger dinghy. This manatee lives in salt water and is enjoying a drink of fresh water. It would be a hard up sailor who would mistake one of the beasts for a mermaid. Giving the manatees a drink carries a fine of $500.

Adair is touching a manatee in the marina. I don't know if the manatee thinks it is fun, but Adair thought it was a hoot.
