though to be honest scientifically I have a hard time beliving that it was the manatee or sea cow sailors were confusiing for mermaids. Regionally manatee didn't even go where the majority of sightings occured, and they don't have the speckled tails of fish that were reported.
But that's just me,
Also manatees can't beach themselves on rocks the way it was said Mermaids did.
Now I can see one passing in the new world and someone glancing down at dark or merky waters and seeing the shape MIGHT have assumed, then perhaps saw a seal or some other marine mammal on a rock from a distance and put the two together, and made a mistake.
But by itself, Manatee's are very unreliable references for a mermaid
