JetBoaters.net Bimini Fling July 10th to 15th 2017

@swatski took more of a blow to the shoulder. He didn't loose consciousness, and continued to pilot his boat while holding up his tower with the other hand.

This is how legends are made! In a few years, the story will be @swatski swam all the way to Bimini with his boat on his shoulder. The rest of us will be looking at him in aww. Way to go man! You made it to paradise.
 
We need to add a trophy to the site for those that have made the Bimini crossing.

Who would win, Coach Ditka or a hurricane...that's easy...Ditka. Ahh, but the hurricane's name was Swatski...ahh....Swatski!

Head, shoulder, whatever that must have felt real nice lol. I dropped mine on my collarbone while in my driveway and it hurt like a mofo!! I couldn't imagine how that must have felt when it slammed down from wave blasting.

The screws/bolts that hold in the tower hasn't never impressed me and the slop causes the tower to move slightly when impacted hard. It's why I think the base of mine started having the powder coat chip and flake off. Love everything about my tower minus the screws/bolt design and the Bimini top.

Smiles all around! That's the spirit! Enjoy the well deserved vacation @Alex&Elena
 
@Drift Away .... you crack me up!

Considering what happened to you, you by far have the most perfect and appropriate Screen name

Enjoy your time over there brother
I can't remember who said it but I am going to add "ed" in between my boat name and can possibly the grid coordinates they found us at.
 
@Drift Away I like the grid coordinates idea. I just think you may be jinxing yourself even further :D :D

I did.
 
My last name is Wilson so naturally I thought of naming my boat "Lil Wilson" with this next to it (in blue to match the boat)....

But then I thought of all the possible jinxes to give myself I didn't want to end up like this...

Agreed, might as well just rename your boat The Edmund Fitzgerald
We ran out of gas twice and drifted in the middle of the ocean for 5 hours not really sure how much more I can jinx myself lol
 
Let's not ask, huh?
