2018 Bimini June trip (June 24th - June 30th)

[justason]

For all that are driving north to south what is best to hit the Tolls or avoid them. I will be driving down from Atlanta Ga.

i'll be peeling off rte 95 at Ft pierce and taking the florida turnpike from there

So far every day this month has been crossable but maybe one. 7 day forecast looks great as well so far fingers crossed.

We better start cbatting it up more, the lame-o July group is actually hitting 31 pages (yes, I know its a lot of fluff) and thats more than a third as many as ours. Little too close to half as many for comfort.

Lmao.... I don't even look at Facebook much... Just this page.. . But I am often sad when there are no additional comment since the last time I checked it.. Like.. 3 min earlier!

and on another note....after wrestling with it for about a week, I went with someones suggestion of getting a knock off GoPro. I ordered a Akaso Brave 4. It has good reviews so fingers crossed that it works well!

if it mounts like the gopro does.. look into DX.com this place has an ungodly amount of "stuff" dirt cheap. including chargers and carry boxes

Download the iSmart DV app on your smartphone. You can wifi connect to camera.

the WIFI feature is great...to help you recall what happened last night.......but be aware it consumes the gopro battery pretty quickly.

I think our groups need names......

 

[Julian]

Is anyone planning on going later on Sunday morning? We departed between 10 and 11am last year.

 

[Bruce]

We departed between 10 and 11am last year.

I know you did and you had a great crossing following in an 80 footers wake but early crossings before the sun builds up energy in the air and water are typically better.

Your group has a name the Sunday group

We only followed the Lazarra in for the last mile or two.

That said, we will be departing between 10 and 11am again this year, unless the wave forcast is for worse waves (significantly) later in the day. So anyone who wants to join us is welcome to do so (but Bruce is correct....earlier is usually better). Just want to coordinate this ahead of time if we are connecting with anyone. We are happy to go solo too. If the waves/weather look better earlier, we may seek a cheap motel outside FL and stage there before an early departure.
