The Dolphin House will soon have a JetBoaters.net @Bimini2017 license plate to include in his future plans. :)

Ashley traded me a Bimini license plate for a custom JetBoaters.

I am waiting for @Bill D footage too. The word on the street ( or water) was that he captured a 4 seconds of airborne action. At least that is what his accelorometer registered. I heard @Water Girl might have some good strom footage too. I cannot wait to see them. Because so far our footage makes all look as wimps. None of the footage so far looks as bad as it was.

@blacksapphirez did have good Karma. That explains why he got there first.
We are going to watch the go pro tonight and watch that scary cross!!

After a week of hot tub and bourbon therapy my back just starting to feel better I haven't even looked at my GoPro yet. I think if I look at it it might scare me into not going next year. I've looked at some of the other videos posted and for some reason it doesn't look that bad crossing.

I agree they didn't look nearly as bad as the actual experience! I'm still hurting!

Here are a few pictures I took while in Bimini. Most of these were taken at the Hawksbill dive site between 40' - 60' feet. ***disclaimer---I did use a photo editing software to clean up some of the backscatter and floating sedimate in the water for a better picture*** but all these pics were taken by myself

Great pics! What camera/photo editor are you using? How did you bring the color back to the shot? Is it a filter, light, editing, combination?

I gave up on recording/photographing my dives because my shots always looked like crap & I missed to much of my surroundings on top of it. I'd try again if I thought I could get results half as good as you have. Well done
