Saltwater boating off California leaves salty residue on skin and boats, while freshwater at Sutton's Bay stays calmer with smaller waves. The speaker's family prefers freshwater for kids because it's gentler and easier on the boat.

and we're sailors, and so we did a lot of boating off the coast of California in the salt water. Here we have the fresh water, much easier on the boat. We have a daughter and a son that both have families in California now, but they love to come here to the fresh water because, first of all, for the younger kids, they don't have the gigantic waves in Sutton's Bay, and also they don't have the the salt film on them when they get out of the water, and it's much easier for a sailor, it's much easier on your boat in the freshwater than the saltwater.
