Recordist's notes
2 small boats with outbord motors pass by. This is a simultaneous in sync above and below the water recording. In my opinion these small outboard motors create some of the nastiest human-made sounds on the planet. Very loud for their size they must be a nightmare for water creatures trying to live there.
