Please post up how the whole process goes. I am looking at that avenue for next year. We sed to be LBO qualified but since we all live in VA now that is no longer an option.
I hope you have better luck then me. I interveiwed last Thursday and still don't have my number. I'm going to call the Charleston office tomorrow I'm praying their computer didn't crash or something. I will know better tomorrow as my wife and daughter go to Wilmington for theirs tomorrow. They day I went to charleston was the same day as the church shooting so Everything was kind of on alert when I went.
Looks like Miami is the only office that does weekend interviews also. Just checked everywhere up and down the east coast and the only other one I could find was Delaware.
Well apparently someone didn't submit mine right on the computer but they got it fixed and I finally got my Svrs # today my wife and daughter did theirs in Wilminton NC this morning and their experince was similar to the rest of you got their numbers right then. The guy in Wilmington said they were the first people he had done this for in a few years at that location. He thought it was interesting as he had two more appointments to do it the next day as well.
Last year we carried 150 or so 20 ounce Gatorade bottles and brought many of them back. This year we will carry 36 bottles and use the powdered Gatorade and tap water to refill. This saves space and weight in the boat as well as cost.

Here is a map of Bimini Sands with condo locations and MMSI #'s as we currently know it. The Word document is also attached so you can print your own copy.
Those on the map are the ones that have posted their info. There are about 6 or so people that have not posted where they are staying but have said they are going, so I think the group could end up close to 20 boats/jet skis.

Question for folks who have passed before. Let's say your battery dies while you're over there. Does Bimini have any solutions there or do you all bring a backup?
