Haven't been out on the ocean for while.. (South florida, Hillsboro
inlet)

But, I finished helping my friend repair the motor on his boat and
undo the damage inflicted upon it by the (professional marine
mechanics).

Time for sea trial and pick up some clean ocean water for his salt
water fish tanks.

The Intercostal was green as the chicago river on St Patties day..Ok..
Get out on ocean.. it's also green .. yeow...
Several miles out.. Still green (but less intense).. yuck..

It hasn't rained in several days(we're in a drought), and most
dredging ops have stopped for sea turtle nesting season..

This is not normal..

We finally give up looking for clean water, and fill the tanks with
some what greenish water 3-4 miles out.
