Only watched the first 35 seconds:
A bikini girl flopping around and some snorkeling shots.

Been doing that and more on monos over the years.

I was of course refering to the shallow draft... but otherwise, yes, of course!

The people in that video are really annoying. Also, there are monos that can go shallow. Even beach.

I don't know, I can not catch fish on a mono pretty well if I try.

Yeah monos actually scare fish away. Proven fact.

Re: Not to be attempted by a mono :)

OFFS

I can fantasize on nubile women with the best of them, and can even point you to some sites where they don't bother with the bikinis. But what does any of this have to do with sailing?

And is it just for me that the sound doesn't work or is garbled, or is it just that no one else has noticed?
