It wasn’t too long ago that manatees were raised for food; hence Cowpens Anchorage near Islamorada, Florida. As slow and as stupid as they are; they are hard to catch. Manatees only eat sea grass and it’s hard to put sea grass on a hook. Running over them with a boat is not practical either. Contrary to what the Save the Manatee Foundation claims; very few are killed by boats. In Broward County only one per year has been killed by a boat over the past 30 years. That’s usually in Port Everglades by a freighter. When a 600’ freighter with 72” wheels hits a manatee you have instant Manatee Puree. How they even found the remains is a mystery to me.

One of my favorites is Manatee Stew

Ingredients:

One medium manatee
1 bottle of oregano
1 bottle of MSG
3 lg. Bermuda onions
3 garlic cloves
1 case and 1 six pack of Bud
1 bottle of Tabasco sauce
1 cup of salt
3 cups of chopped seaweed
4 lbs. potatoes
5 tomatoes diced


Cut manatee into 1 inch cubes, skin potatoes and onions and cut into quarters, combine all ingredients into large pot, add case of Bud and cook for 6 hours, stir every half hour while drinking the six pack of Bud, makes 48 servings. (Best served outside as manatees give you gas)

"Auto ascending setup is an interesting idea, though it takes a bit of fiddling around to get it right. Once it's dialed in, it actually works quite well."

"Michael, From experience over three keel boats a fully battened main is almost a requirement. Not only will it make dropping the sail into the boom bag far easier it certainly reduces any flogging and vastly lengthens the life of the sail. While…"
