Bimini here we come
I am sorry but trying to bring a 9 month old across on a jet boat was a BAD idea. No matter what conditions.
I have done this twice on jet skis and if the weather looks iffy then you wait it out..

I think they get it considering they lived it, no need to pile on. . . .

Love it when people try to be an armchair quarterback with incorrect facts.

bring a 9 month old across on a jet boat
it actually was a 30 ft boat. Not sure of make/model.

Kind of reminds me of the 2015 crossing. One wife was like 8 months pregnant on that epic journey. All of the baby belly flying about as we crossed 3-4 footers. She flew home at the end of the week. :)

So after a lot of reflection about the Crossing it was rough it beat the hell out of all of us but truly @Valerie is truly a gangster for taking a jet ski across that. I took a 24-foot boat with two Motors and I've been self-medicating with bourbon for the last 24 hours. Those of us who made the Crossing in a boat have nothing on what at Valerie did. Valerie I owe you a drink I'll be at the infinity pool tonight my hat's off to you!
