He order 15 each of small, med and large all in blue it will be a random selection to see who gets first pic of sizes once they are gone that’s it. There will be a separate auction site set up so if you don’t get you size of preference others may sell those sizes to the highest bidder.

Unless someone enjoys seeing us in too tight shirts... ​

So if the weather were accommodating would anyone be up for a run over to Great Issac Cay one day while we are out there?

I know @Andy S and I planing to do a run there as well. Great Isaacs looks awesome but there are several challenges involved first being there is no real approach you will have to anchor offshore in probably 8-10 foot deep water and swim to the island and climb up a rock wall to get onto the island so just a heads up to those who attempt this trip it will take moderate physical excretion just to get yourself onto the island. If any one plans a trip I would probably keep it low key or a small group at first unless you have been and know exactly where to try and anchor and enter the island or you could be asking for a bigger hassle with more people. @Andy S and I planned to scope it out early in the week and if we found it to be accommodating enough bring a larger group back later in the week but by all means this doesn't mean any one can't plan their own excursion to the island I just wanted to make sure everyone knew there where challenges involved getting there and getting onto the island. Also if anyone goes please be careful climbing the rocks apparently the area is know to be covered in sea urchins.

Those with ballast bag systems and 242x, are you leaving your bags in place or removing them for a little extra space and so not to damage them with cargo and gear?

I left mine alone, but I only have me and my brother.....but we did have a boat load of fishing tackle. I figured it was more hassle than it was worth. I covered the bag in the ski locker and put light things in there, and rolled back the starboard under seat one.

Well shit. Our secret spot is out.

Are you hauling loads along the way?

You sure are living up to being the “Crazy Greek”!!!!

If something comes up I will take it but I am not actively looking for one. I am trying to make this as short of trip as possible

Thanks Julian that’s kind of what I was thinking of doing too.

the more you wax now the easier it will be to get rid the Bahia Mar crap in the water. Mine looked awufull when we pulled it the water but when I come home, it wash right off.
