Boats that use the boats were describing as a dingy. We would get compliments on the Cobalt and the Yamaha while there and the complement was always followed by the question where is your boat? They just assumed the Cobalt and the Yamaha were tenders for our other boat I don't believe we ran into anyone else over there on a boat that was even in the same class as ours that was used to get there we were literally surrounded by Yatchs the entire time in Exuma.

They probably thought yall were lying or crazy as shit.

They probably owned boats like the mega yatch that was sitting in Charleston on way back from HHI.

CLEARLY we were all wrong about this lovely relationship...but I guess if some dude leaves your ass in the Bahamas, he’s going to have to save face somehow. Maybe he was concerned about the group potentially excommunicating
him for next years crossing. See what you guys make people do?!!?????!! I bet he didn’t even get a sticker!

Is that a joke or a serious post I can't tell anymore in my old age?

Update on the money we collected to pay for the Immigration & Customs Officer to be at Bimini Sands, who didn't show up. @justason and I split the money collected so that he could pay part up front and I would pay the remainder once I arrived, I was in the last group to cross. Once we got back to the states @justason asked what folks wanted to due with the collected money and the overwhelming response was to donate it to the Bimini Children's Toy Drive run by the @Karie Vander Werf https://jetboaters.net/threads/2017-bimini-christmas-toy-drive.15820/

I have donated the portion I had to the Toy Fund. @justason has also donated his portion to the Toy Fund.

Here's a recap of our trip. What a great time with the usual suspects and it was also nice meeting some new folks.

We were out much of today but more then likely we’ll be visiting my father this weekend as he recently had surgery. We need to have a Jetboater meet up here at Oconee.
