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

Unfortunatley Bimini Sands was out of fuel when we went to fill up so we ran to Blue Water to top off the tank. We burned less than half a tank on the return.

Wow. We run'd 'em dry ?!

Glad you caught your trailer woes before they turned worse !!

@Julian, @Gavin could loan you his Explorer 200 but I have to warn you that it is pretty hilarious when I get out of it. That keg is certainly going to end up floating!

We are rolling toward home. Thank you @Glen for the connection with Ames Trailer repair. They did a great job and were very helpful. Hopefully we will not need their help again but, if we do they are the people to turn to.

Their information should also be a part of the Bimini preparation :D
 
what breaks a leaf ?

If I had to guess I would suggest that the 8 wheels in the air flight on terribly lumpy interstate in Jackson, MS is to blame.

And if you think that is funny - just wait for me to start posting X-ray images of my sacroiliac (SI) joint w/ impact damage, lol. Will go nicely in the "Bimini Fling photos and videos.....post them up!" thread.

BTW - anyone looking for one of the most skilled chiropractors in the STL area - let me know, I can hook you up. She is very hard to book otherwise.

Hey I know those roads! Lol
 
To be clear, @swatski led the last group out of Port Everglades and continued to Bimini burning only 42 gallons of fuel. Many in his group turned back. Many in other groups ran out of fuel and had to be rescued. I want @swatski by my side every time I cross to Bimini.
 
Lol. How did I miss this conversation? I need to pay more attention to the forum
 
It may have taken us all week. ..and alot of naps, but our boat is finally cleaned and back in her summer home.

Thanks to @Bruce and everyone who had part in organizing this trip. We had an awsome time.
