I love the color and clarity of that water. I can't wait for August in NH. The one month we can foil without a wetsuit.   :)

Maybe a turtle, judging by how many I saw down there

Caribsurf

Yes lots of turtles and I always see them, but never saw anything before impact

Gorgeous. I think I hit a turtle the other day at Fort Pierce but never saw it. It felt and sounded like I hit a rock, but there were no rocks there. I am hopefully assuming that their armor protects them from impacts like that.

I bet your filmer would appreciate a tripod!

Haha your probably right. That's my wife shooting from our deck, it gets crazy windy up there and the gusts play havoc with her camera work.
