Strictly Sail Miami Boat Show 2012

Strictly Sail Miami Boat Show was over five days. All the boats were so big and fancy. Wow. Really just too much. But fun to tour.

L.'s favorite was the Outremer 49 named "Kitty Cat". It is orange and you can see it behind me. We all know orange is fast. Also the skyline of Miami, as we were right downtown, next door to where the Heat play.
Miami is quite the metropolis, lots of traffic and crazy drivers. And we thought So-Cal was bad!


We spotted the biggest manatee yet at the boat show. It was about 8 feet long, and about 4 feet around. He was pretty sedate. They just sit and sleep and sun. No wonder they are hit by boats regularly. His tale was huge! It looked like he had some barnacles on his back, but no scars anywhere, so is most likely young. While we watched him he burped and tooted. Lovely....nature...

Stay tuned. We made our first offer on a boat(not at the show), but have heard nothing yet. Will Rocky's Ocean Adventure really happen?
